Been there, seen that. The oral history of the nuthouse includes a doc who went catatonic in the chart room. Took several hours for anyone to notice he hadn't moved since morning meeting. They got him quietly hospitalized. He was schizophrenic, would go off his meds, go nuts, get hospitalized, get better, go back to work.
I admitted him a couple of times, and got blown away when I'd get a call about him from one of the local hospitals ... where he was working and was referring a patient to us.
Eventually he got too debilitated to work, lost his medical license and ended up in a group home. I know that he's dead, think he finally completed suicide.
So, yes, Virginia, there are crazy shrinks.
The Fort Hood guy was a shrink specializing in PTSD. How's that for a bite in the ass?
He was from a Jordanian family, was career military. That he was only a major said a lot about his military career, as does his transfer from Walter Reed to Fort Hood. I listened to an interview last night in which a former coworker, also a shrink, talked about Hasan making statements wsix or more months ago about how Muslims needed to rise up against the aggressor ... who was the aggressor? The U.S. Military. I have also seen the footage of his trip to the convenience store on the way to work ... he wasn't in uniform, military uniform, anyway ... he was wearing one of those flowing white cotton garments that you don't usually see even very traditional Muslim men wearing here in the U.S.
