May 19, 2004 - In her new book, "Becoming Real" — and on a "Today" series of the same name — show contributor Dr. Gail Saltz offers ways to escape the behaviors learned to cope with childhood that can later hold us back as adults dealing with relationships, work and self-image. Dr. Saltz joined MSNBC.com chat producer Will Femia to answer questions from "Today" show viewers and readers of the "Today" Web site about how to recognize and change the internal stories we tell ourselves that guide how we interact with others.
