Title: I need a vacation!
Post by: Razgovory on August 25, 2009, 12:30:57 PM
Saw my Psychiatrist today.  He told me I needed vacation (odd since I don't do anything).  He said I needed to get on a train and go far, far away.

I hate doctors. :(

You should take the train to Churchill and see the polar bears.

I think  it's about as "far, far away" as you can get going by train.  :)

I guess the doctor is saying you need a change of scenery? You say you don't do anything - I assume you mean work? Regardless if someone is working or what ever, things can still get stale and it's probably a good idea to get away a bit, even if just day trips.

She's saying you need out of your rut. Generally a good idea, for everyone.

God knows I need out of mine on occasion.

I'll probably need it. It can get chilly up there.

PS - have you posted your pic?

You know, I'd not mind. Someone has to hew the wood and draw the water  ;) ... but I'm not going alone: this is a grandparents-and-all trip.

Yeah, it's not possible for you to take a vacation, Raz.  A vacation is time away from work/school.  You can however take a trip and your doc is probably right that this would be good for you.

Can I sleep in your lawn?

You can sleep in my woods, sure.  I would advise against sleeping on my lawn proper as there is the occasional pile of dog shit.

True.

You might not notice that its actually Raz and end up stuffing him into a garbage bag.

Why get on a *train* to go to a far away place?  He should have suggested a PLANE :contract:

Your Doc sounds not very good.  Surely the reason you are seeing him is because you are unable to do such a thing without full support?  He should be offering you the options available without you having to ask shouldn't he?  Why not go back to him and ask what sort of support there is?
On another note, I haven't been able to find the reference, but I'm sure there was some research in either Ozzy or NZ, that went beyond SAD and suggested that lack of natural sunlight could cause Psychosis(?) because of lack of vit D - I'm afraid I can't be more accurate than that, but maybe its worth asking him about that too -

If your doctor advices you to do something, shouldn't your health-insurance cover the costs?
