Alright, well I totally do not get the whole pancreas humor thing. Is it some kind of special Mensan humor? Like, over my head? Or is it..wait...deadheads...
Maybe *you* Mary Ann, could get Mensan Pads to be a sponsor of our tragi-comedic offering. And for the guys with no patience, maybe a premature posting herbal remedy sponsor.
Sure, I ate the olives. Tizzy assured me I would only barf once. I trust Tizzy implicitly. Just the name inspires trust, doncha think?

The Psychiatric Hotline"
Hello, and welcome to the Psychiatric Hotline. 
If you are obsessive compulsive, please press 1 repeatedly. 
If you are co-dependent, please ask someone to press 2. 
If you have multiple personalities, please press 3, 4, 5, and 6. 
If you are paranoid-delusional, we know who you are and what you want.
Just stay on the line until we trace the call. 
If you are schizophrenic, listen carefully and a little voice will tell you
which number to press. 
If you are manic depressive, it doesn't matter which number you press. No
one will answer. 
Remember, if he gives you "shock treatment" it is to prepare you for
the bill!! |

Here is the reference from an old W.C. Fields movie. W. C. lands in a hot air balloon and asks "Is this Kansas City, Kansas or Kansas City, Missouri?" Just then three girls in hula skirts walk by and W. C. does one of his famous throw-away lines, "Reminds me of the fabled dancing girls of the Isles of Langrahans"
I am not a psychiatrist. Psychiatry is an obsolete profession. They are now psycho pharmacologists. I am a cognitive/behavioral therapist.

I actually wrote the original of this more than ten years ago. My version was better.

Sam— | Quote: | | I am a cognitive/behavioral therapist. |
Wow Sam. You don’t seem quite touchy-feely enough to be a psychotherapist (that’s a compliment). Also, at the risk of sounding like an insensitive & simple-mined red state guy, psychotherapy seems to be such a waste of all that mensa IQ. (Do mensas sometimes tend to be underachievers?) Sounds like you could at least have been a psycho pharmacologist.
A while back I tried to explain to some cognitive therapy people (on their forum), who tend to equate affective processing and cognition/cognitive processing, that affective processing takes place separately by subcortical subconscious neural systems (e.g., amygdala) with or without or in spite of, and quicker than, the higher thinking and reasoning (conscious and subconscious) cognition … and that the influence of affect on higher cognition is far greater than the influence of cognition on affective processing—the primacy of affect over cognition.
I couldn’t convince them, but then I’m no mensa. However, I tend to agree that behavioral therapy may be worthwhile, although personally I prefer drugs.

This is my first time on this forum.
Should I light my pipe, or crack open a Budweiser?

Wow Sam. You don’t seem quite touchy-feely enough to be a psychotherapist (that’s a compliment).
At my clinic it is more like enlightenment boot camp than touch-feely. "Sam, you give a Karate chop to the chest, pull the beating heart out, carve truth on it with a butcher knife and then shove it back together and sew it up with a # 9 darning needle." has be said about my style. I have mellowed a bit with age.
Also, at the risk of sounding like an insensitive & simple-mined red state guy, psychotherapy seems to be such a waste of all that Mensa IQ. (Do menses sometimes tend to be underachievers?) Sounds like you could at least have been a psycho pharmacologist.
You’re just trying to butter me up to get drugs. We have a psycho pharmacologist on staff for such things. Underachiever? Nope, smart enough to know that I came here to have a good life and sometimes work (achievement) gets in the way of a good life. Most of the people on this forum could join Mensa so don’t try to pull “keep it simple I’m just a good old boy”.
A while back I tried to explain to some cognitive therapy people (on their forum), who tend to equate affective processing and cognition/cognitive processing, that affective processing takes place separately by sub cortical subconscious neural systems (e.g., amygdala) with or without or in spite of, and quicker than, the higher thinking and reasoning (conscious and subconscious) cognition … and that the influence of affect on higher cognition is far greater than the influence of cognition on affective processing—the primacy of affect over cognition.
You are neglecting to make a distinction between instinctual responses with neuro peptides produced by thinking. Every thought we think produces emotional chemicals that flood the system in less than a second. Cognitive therapy does not address instinct, only self produced emotions from what we are thinking about.
I couldn’t convince them, but then I’m no Mensa. However, I tend to agree that behavioral therapy may be worthwhile, although personally I prefer drugs.
Do you know about Same? We use lots of it with our clients.
Sam

Both. Repeat as necessary.

Kerry's IQ was shown to be 115 on his OCS records
that where reported on another Swift Boat discussion forum earlier.
There was a link to a .pdf file. I was hard to read but the
numbers were 8, 57, 50 which add to 115.

I don't charge for opinions. I charge for my time. Cheap too. Only $150 an hour.
However please refer to the post about the pipe and Bud. It's cheaper.

Nope. It was test form 8. NOQT score 57. Percentile among NOQT test takers 50.
However his IQ is 115 and Bush is 125.

I got me one of those Attention Deficit Disorder brains, disinclined to think and/or produce a whole lot of neuro peptides. And I’m getting old.
Regarding Sam-e, the literature indicates it’s good stuff, but never did much for me. I use amphetamine (prescription of course); and, unfortunately, have had to eliminate my Budweiser intake—alcohol’s a downer.
I’m persuaded that happiness is biochemical. Nevertheless, I still love Jesus, red state folk, and Veterans Day; and your enlightenment boot camp certainly sounds like a most effective psychotherapy.
Godspeed,
Fred H. |
