Psychiatrist

Marvin had a hard time adjusting to his new body after the Great Shift. After several months of being a shut-in, his friends and family forced him to a psychiatrist.

“I’m not about to sit down on your couch, Doc,” Marvin told the psychiatrist, “And I’m not going to change out of these sweatpants to enjoy the world. There’s nothing to enjoy! My life is over!”

“Is that how you feel?” The doctor asked, “You appear to be young with many years in front of you from my perspective.”

Marvin sighed, “I know. I know how this works, but it really isn’t going to work on me. I’m a chick now! How could things be worse!?” Marvin paused as he looked back at the doctor, “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to offend.”

“None taken.” The psychiatrist responded, “I have come to terms with the fact that I switched bodies with an eight year old as the result of the Great Shift. Maybe it’s time for you to come to terms with your new body as well.”
