Some one said that to me once " If you can have a good laugh at
yourself, then you are sure on the right way to recovery. I think we
should look in the mirror some times and try to have a good laugh at
ourselves. Because laughter not only releases endorphins in the brain,
but looking at life from a humorous perspective makes it a lot easier to
deal with challenges in every day life. Do you have a joke about mental
illness? I'm going to start with a couple. Joke #1: 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 so we can trace the call. If you are schizophrenic, listen
carefully and a little voice will tell you which number to press. If you
are depressed, it doesn't matter which number you press. No one will
answer. If you are delusional and occasionally hallucinate, please be
aware that the thing you are holding on the side of your head is alive
and about to bite off your ear. Joke #2: A psychologist was walking
along a Hawaiian beach when he kicked a bottle poking up through the
sand. Opening it, he was astonished to see a cloud of smoke and a genie
smiling at him. "For your kindness," the genie said, "I will grant you
one wish!" The psychologist paused, laughed, and replied, "I have always
wanted a road from Hawaii to California." The genie grimaced, thought
for a few minutes and said, "Listen, I'm sorry, but I can't do that!
Think of all the pilings needed to hold up the highway and how long
they'd have to be to reach the bottom of the ocean. Think of all the
pavement. That's too much to ask." "OK," the psychologist said, not
wanting to be unreasonable. "I'm a psychologist. Make me understand my
patients. What makes them laugh and cry, why are they temperamental, why
are they so difficult to get along with, what do they really want?
Basically, teach me to understand what makes them tick!" The genie
paused, and then sighed, "Did you want two lanes or four?" I really hope
you guys find these funny, because I couldn't stop laughing when i first
read them.
