#37: Coping Mechanisms Are Important
As far as I’m concerned, I’m totally on the side of these joking medicos. It wouldn’t even have occurred to me that they were being rude, and they have every right to relieve stress in whatever ways are necessary for them. God knows these are people who let their own health suffer to improve ours.

The only thing I’d be asking is that if they have something to say, they share it with everyone. I mean, I also have the right to a laugh. I also need help compartmentalizing my trauma, and the laughing gas they’ve been giving just doesn’t seem to be enough without a little comic stimulation.
