Yeah, they really ARE out to get us!

Here's what I do -- just *pretend* to have Normal Personality Disorder ... don't respond out loud to the voices; don't obey the commands ... just act like everything's OK, or else they'll LOCK US UP AGAIN!

"Fine, thanks; and how are you?"

"Oh, please excuse me, beg your pardon; I was just practicing my lines for a theater play."

"I'm terribly sorry -- must be that double espresso!"

Etc.

Please don't post anything that could lead others to feel accused or put down. The last time you were blocked, it was for 3 weeks, so this time, it's for 9.

If you have any questions or comments about this or about posting policies in general, or are interested in alternative ways of expressing yourself, please see the FAQ:

or email me, or redirect a follow-up to Psycho-Babble Administration after your block is over.

Thanks,

Bob

Hi Dr. Bob,

Thank you for looking out to ensure that my feelings don't get hurt, but I perceived shadyut's comment as being (at least partly) facetious and it didn't bother me at all ... my post was partly serious but was partly kidding around, and I think that shadyut's response was just joining in the levity -- keeping a sense of humor and not taking ourselves too seriously is some of the best medicine there is!

I don't know whether my views count for much in this administrative matter, but if you would please reconsider your decision to block shadyut, I would be grateful.

Thanks.
