All you need to say to the head shrinker is

This applies if you are ever forced to undergo evaluation, or if you ever lament finding yourself all alone, behind closed doors, set to contend against some accursed sanctimonious PhD.

All you've got to say to the bozo is...

Hello doctor! Your reputation precedes you. I am told by very reliable sources that you are a lackey, scandalously corrupt, and that pretty much everything out of your mouth is a lie. Now let's begin the session.

I take it you don't like quacks, eh?

Oh, I kinda like everybody.

But all good things must come to an end, and brotherhood's number is up

BTW, I found this quote attributed to Sigmund Freud, at http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Freud#Unsourced:

I have found little that is "good" about human beings on the whole. In my experience most of them are trash, no matter whether they publicly subscribe to this or that ethical doctrine or to none at all.

I was never forced into an assessment.

I know people can be though if they are a danger to themselves, I think that's the right thing to do when that happens.

They have no universal right to force someone into assessment. This is a universal crime.

Since you own your life, you have a right to end it. Hopefully one day these "doctors" will be excluded from the society because they are a threat to the universal moral code.

And most of these "doctors" are probably Christians with supposedly Christian Values. I can tell you there is nothing religious about the authoritarian end of our society. Everyone has a right to opinions but no-one should have the right to stop someone from killing themselves.

'Not sure to what you refer when you say "right thing to do" ...you mean forced assessment of 'dangerous' folk is the right thing? or did you mean that berating the examiner is the right thing?

Presuming the former...

The words "presumption of innocence" still mean something to those who respect Constitutional Law, though it may be just a crumby worthless phrase to the pitiable, to the wretched and to the misguided.

The words "public trial" and "trial by jury" and "speedy trial" still mean something to scholars, though its purport may be lost on the blind, on the poor and on dodos.

So what demigod/despot is gonna condemn the prisoner, eh smarty? You'd need a veritable SOUL DOCTOR, and we all know that there exists none such, for the Good Book says, "Judge not lest you in turn be judged". So, just any old corrupt lackey of the power structure will do, hmmm?

Tyranny, despotism: Idi Amin loved it; Hitler cherished it; Noriega embraced it; Ferdinand Marcos employed it; Saddam Hussein plied it; Pol Pot enjoyed it. ALL the dictators have used psych to oppress their detractors, so why don't you just shut down this thread, homely party girl, and no one will be the wiser that they're getting screwed in the ass by charlatans.

I mean the first, forcing those a danger to themselves or others.

Involuntary commitment should be considered false imprisonment.
Been there done that ,the mental hospital made things worse for me... not better! Before my father got me out of there they were talking about giving me ECT. Oh!! And I didn't become a danger to myself until they fed me their multi-drug cocktail,making me a drooling zombie. People who endorse involutary hospitalization should try it themselves first.


Happy Easter BTW

Oh!!

I sympathize

Well if they ever try that again, ALL you've gotta say to the turd is:

"Hello doctor! Your reputation precedes you. I am told by very reliable sources that you are a lackey, scandalously incompetent, and that pretty much everything out of your mouth is a lie. Now, let's begin the session."



That way, there can be no question from the git-go that you aren't at all impressed with his so-called credentials, and that you don't buy his divinity, nor the divinity of the sundry pontificating lowlifes that taught him is trade!

They're in it for the bucks; they're slime. Hypocrites. Lackeys.
