Pedestrians in the city often find themselves lost in deep thought as they are walking, reflecting on everything from their future goals to last night's pillow talk with their partner.
As people sacrifice thier personal time for busy schedules, these casual reflection times become all the more important. Sidewalk Psychiatry encourages self-evaluation in transit by posing critical questions on the sidewalks of New York City. Now your daily ponderings and emotional anxieties can be treated on the go, free of charge!
