MyDepressionList

It’s very simple. Let’s say I went to the doctor, told him everything. And he says: "Well, what are you making up? Everything is fine with you. Get a girlfriend, find an interesting job, find some hobby, do sports, spend less time at the computer, go to discos, and everything will be fine. Here is a prescription for ascorbic acid. Goodbye! Next!"

I had a more amusing experience. I went to the doctor to complain about insomnia. She asks, "Were you having sad thoughts?" I said, "Well, yes." She asks, "Have you ever had suicidal thoughts?" I decided not to give the full version of my monologue on the topic that this is an essential thought for any thinking person and answered, "Yes." She says, "Well, that's not a big deal. We have a great place outside the city where they help people like you. I've been there, and they have a lot of fun there" (this was said in such a tone that you could clearly see people in white coats drawing suns on the walls), "so I recommend you sign up there."
