# Doctors Log Ch.5 Doc 2 Author: pop5on22 Tags: Bat, Depression, Doctor, Female, Male, Panther, Pop5on22, Ram, Story Progression, Straight Ill be honest some of my patients are troubled souls with problems not meant for TV. Take for instance my second patient. Patient 2 Male Goat Age 23 Name: Ralph Killeen He was so calm , there was a neutral vibe to his walk when he entered my office and sat his guitar next to the door. He sat in the same seat as everyone else , across from my own. His eyes seemed to look through me , perhaps his mind was occupied on something. Doc- this isn't your first time in therapy Ralph- no , I've gone to a couple of other places Doc- but never for more than a few weeks at a time? Ralph- what can I say , I guess I thought I was better His attempt at humor was clear distancing from my question , you could see it in the half smile that he cracked and slight laugh that ended before it began. Doc- In what way Ralph- I don't know , it was just a feeling Doc- well your here now , so what would you like to talk about Ralph- I don't know Doc- why don't you tell me about yourself Ralph- don't you already know about me from my file Doc- papers don't speak the same way you and I can   Ralph-well ... I take pictures and write songs Doc- so your an artist Ralph- sorta , most of my songs are about how I feel I don't belong, but lately the wall I stand by doesn't feel like home the way I remember it. Doc- the wall? Ralph- The wall outside me and my sisters house, Its where I smoke and go to write Doc- I see , and this wall doesn't feel as comfortable as it once did Ralph- yea it might be because I stopped smoking, but I find myself inside more than before Doc- and am I right in assuming that frequenting a place that brings sad songs less is a good thing for you Ralph- I don't write as many sad songs ,no , but its not as black and white as that Doc- tell me more then Ralph- See I dropped out of college, and moved back home with my only family my older sister, and now I work as a bag boy and by night I try to be the artist my parents always saw me as He spoke with little attachment to his words. His account of his own life was as detailed as a second person's point of view of his story . Doc- are you happy   Ralph-I don't know I guess I just want more out of life but don't know where to find it , I don't even know what "it" is Doc- I see His eyes started to gloss over with a slight chance of watery down pore , but he regained his composer returning back to a state of being a passenger in his own body. Ralph- Sure I work a boring day job and I dropped out of school but I'm living a good life... I think am... most people would say I am. I don't even know what I'm doing here Doc- It takes strength to acknowledge that your feeling something is missing in your life, It takes even more to be willing to seek help, and where I am in no way capable of telling you what "it" is that you need I can help you figure it out Ralph was a good kid who needed help figuring things out. My next patient on the other hand simply put "needed help". Patient 3 Female Panther Age 25 Name: Barbara Waters She was a beautiful woman, but she had crazy eyes that would stalk you. Even with my face hidden behind her file I could feel the unhinged gaze. Eventually I had to put down the file and when I did she was sitting before me cleaning her claws as if she were preparing for battle.   Barbara-I want him so bad She spoke without warning. Doc- You want who? Barbara- Tommy , his name is Tommy and he is the love of my life She snapped at me and I'm ashamed to say I jumped in my seat from being startled. Doc- How are you so sure Tommy is the love of your life , how long have you dated Barbara-That's the problem, we can't ,he won't , she won't let us Doc- And who is she Barbara- My sister She was stark raving mad. Your not supposed to say things like that or question the morality of those you help as a therapist. Its your job to help people be better not decide what is better for them. Doc- Why won't your sister allow you to see Tommy Barbara- Because they're married, come on doc keep up Doc- Let me get this straight your in love with a man who you have never dated because he is currently married to your sister Barbara- Yes Doc- In my opinion it would be easier to find another mate than to go after one who is already taken especially when he is taken by someone you are so closely related to Barbra- Doc I'm not here for you tell me what to do , I just need someone to listen without judging   Doc- I'm not judging but it would be in your best interest Barbara- I know he's the one , the way he looks at me when she's not around tells me everything I need to know Doc- Barbara please Barbara- And if she doesn't give him up... well I don't know what I'd do Doc- Barbara, I don't think this line of thought is very constructive Barbara- Sure it is , I'm constructing a plan to destroy their marriage so that I can have him to myself Source: https://sofurry.com/view/1172447 Previous: https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/1172445-doctors-log-ch-4-doctor-2.md
