ah, wolf. How I envy you.

some little bits I recall from being on both sides of the desk:

a woman talking with her therapist about whether the doc was correct in his diagnosis (of her bipolarity) "Well, with that doctor, I take everything he says with a grand of salt,"

A 20-something schizo, on being told the refridgerator was unlocked: "that's probably not a good idea. I'm a compulsive thing-taker."

Replying to the question of how this man found himself at the State hosp.: "I really don't know. I just went to the police station to get a restraining order against God."
