Having been mentally Ill for 60 years and having had 20 or more psychiatrists, I usually show myself to be mixed up like these two guys when I am seeing a mental health professional.

A Freudian stand-off

Intriguing! I had often wondered, over the years, what had happened to these three former patients of mine. Their identical joint delusional psychosis posed quite a challenge to me some years ago. Eventually all three of them quit showing up for their sessions with me, and I had assumed they had been committed to an institution, either together or separately. Now I see that they are all three together seeing another doctor. It is too bad he is not depicted here.
