Treatment
Modality
An obese man goes to a doctor for
treatment to get thin and appear smarter. At night he dreams, running
and following a beautiful girl in jungle. On waking up in the morning,
he is sweating and happy to find himself in good shape. He shares this
wonderful experience with his friends. A friend who is obese goes to the
same doctor and dreams at night, a devil is running after him. In the
morning he is smarter but not happy with experience. On complaining to
the doctor, the doc says, 'Your friend had a good insurance whereas you
were without insurance.'
Mental
Retardation
A journalist happen to visit a new
mental institution.
He asked the doctor, 'How you detect
mental retardation in someone who appears completely normal?
The doctor said, 'nothing is easy, I
ask a simple question which every one should answer with no trouble. If
he hesitates, that puts you on the track for further evaluation.'
'Well, What sort of question?'
The doctor said you might ask,
'Captain Cook made three trips around the world and died during one of
them.' Tell me, 'Which one?'
Journalist thought for a moment and
then said, 'I must confess, I dont know much about history. Would you
happen to have another example?'
'Communication'
An elderly patient is sitting on her bed in the
geriatric ward. She tries to lean towards the right.
A nursing assistant rushes to her side and places a
pillow on her right side.
The patient then tries to llean to the left and a nurse places another pillow on that side. The patient tries to lean forward and another nurse places the table in front of her.
Later during the day a psychiatrist interviews her
about her problem.
She says "These people around me don't even allow me to pass gas!"
