Mr Schulz of Peanuts fame has fired Lucy from the job ever since Charlie Brown, her main customer stopped visiting.

I am the resident shrink now and can handle anything from
"I just can't tie my shoe-laces right" to Schizophrenia.
It's 1 cent per reply as opposed to Lucy's 10 cents. And since the rate is severly discounted, don't expect top grade advice.
Of course if someone else answers before me, he gets the 1 cent.
If more than one person solve Mr. X's problem, the 1 cent will be split among all the shrinks who helped out Mr. X.
At the end of the month we will tally the total amount each forum member has to collect from every other forum member.
I will need an accountant to handle this, since I will have other things on my mind, like what other people have on their mind.

Any Questions?

And don't go tricking me on this. Any psychological questions will be charged strictly according to the fee schedule.
Of course if I develop any psychological problems, which I will, after listening to everyone else's problems, then the fee will be 2 cents for that particular question, which has resulted in my problem.

Please post your problems, knowing that a bunch of very smart/zany guys will be willing to help you feel worse than when you came in with it.

that chick from Black-Eyed Peas that struck out on her own (cant think of her name) was the voice of Lucy.

@Cattle Rustler
Take 2 aspirin and call me in the morning.
That'll be 1 cent.

Ok. Deathhead also answered, so we'll be splitting that 1 cent.

Every day when I wake up, my fingernails are slightly longer. Every so often, I clip them. Why does this happen?

I've been diagnosed with shizofrenia, but we do not agree.

Quote: "Welcome to the psychical helpdesk.

If you are too dependant, get someone to press 1.

If you have shizofrenia, simultaneously press 3, 4, 5 and 9.

If you're paranoid, please remain on the line. We know exactly who you are, what you want and where you are.

If you've got a little voice in your head, wait until it tells you what number to choose.

If you're depressive, or suffer from lack of confidence, hang up. Nobody will pick up the phone for you.

If you've got dyslexia, spell 'dyslexiatraumateam' on your phone within 10 seconds.

If you suffer from loss of memory, press 8 and give us your name, last name, address, phonenumber, date of birth, registration number and your mothers' maiden name.

If you suffer from a post-traumatic stress syndrome, very carefully and slowly press 0.

If you suffer from indecisiveness, press a 9 after the beep. Or before it. Or after it. Wait for the beep. Or not.

If you have problems with your short-term memory, press 9.
If you have problems with your short-term memory, press 9.
If you have problems with your short-term memory, press 9.

If you have a severe lack of self-esteem, hang up. All our employees are too busy to care about the likes of you."

Aha. Finally a customer with a real problem.

Quote: "Every day when I wake up, my fingernails are slightly longer. Every so often, I clip them. Why does this happen?
"


@KYP
For the same reason that every time you wake up thousands of your body parts grow and fall off. Every once in a while you do have to go to the barber, don't you. I know its painful getting so many body parts cut off in one fell swoop, but that's life. So now don't you feel good that you have to just clip off 10 fingernails?

Since you are my first real patient, I shall waive the 1 cent fee and hope you pass the word along to others in need of help.

@tha_rami

Your problem is too complex for me. I'm still in first year in shrink school. So I'll have to pass on that one. Maybe someone else can help you.

NEXT PATIENT!!

Dash it. Not in my lunch break. OK. Start off by trying to put only 2 dashes at first. I know its difficult but have courage. Get back to me when you're down to 2 dashes.

That'll be 1 cent.

The Doctor is out for lunch. Please leave your problems, with my able partner in shrinkology, tha_rami, who was miraculously cured the other moment.

I have a strange urge to take a chainsaw to most of the people in this thread. Does that mean I'm gay?

That's not as bad as you think you said.

That's the whole idea. The shrink always makes you feel worse than when you came in. Now that you're my customer for life there will be no fee this time.

@OBese87
Quote: "I have no hat"

Grow your hair. I tell you time and time again, what its there for. You won't need a hat. And have you told your mama to hide the razor, and not tell you where she hid it, like the last time?

@Benjamin

What Jerico2day said. Does that make sense? Nonsense is in. Sense is out. I have to stay in business after all.

The difference between any other duck.

You have to stop playing those FPSs, then only will you find true happiness. And no, happy doesn't mean gay.

@INH

*The good doctor thinks to himself "Dash it. INH is recovering faster than I wanted him to. Quickly calls the nurse and tells her to reduce his dosage of Valium. Then returns to patient with a smile...*
INH, you'll have to go slow. Don't rush it with the reducing the dashes stuff. Dashes are good for health. Most people don't know what you are talking about, and that can't be bad.

NOW WHERE'S THAT ACCOUNTANT!! I think I'm going nuts keeping track of all the 1 cents everyone owes me.

It does. Some idiot made the word gay associated with Homosexuality. Before 70's it was used as like..
"Isn't it a gay day today." Not in context of "Isn't it a homosexual day." It means really if you go by what it used to be it is "Isn't it a happy day today."

I think it is a word of French origin, gay still means happy in French.

Geeze, what do I see. A lot of cynics in my clinic. The patients are revolting. The good doctor knows when its time to close shop.


I shall now hand over the clinic to my able partner tha_rami.
Boy, I'm going to miss the nurse. She sure was a cute number. Well, back to my old boring profession as coder.

Actually there are no dashes. So you owe me £90000.01 for being wrong AND compensation for giving me information potentially harmful to my health AND the money for allowing you to cure me. As does bothe the rabi and mamaji4.
