I was hoping to go home early today, but at 3:00 PM I had (unwittingly) scheduled an appointment with a patient who turned out to be suffering from delusional disorder. He was convinced that a particular inmate (who, according to the statewide inmate locator, was not even housed at our facility) was tormenting him by sending electrical surges to his eyelids via satellite. It was not a laughing matter for him or for me, particularly since I spent an hour and a half completing my documentation afterwards.
Thankfully, it is the start of another three-day weekend.
