He actually sounds like a wonderful, sensitive guy who couldn't deal with stuff he had to keep to himself. I wonder if he was seeing someone professionally, himself, because that's why I think it would be nearly impossible to live happily in that profession unless your city was big enough, you need space, room to vent, someone to vent to, a place to go where peers can be serious and kind and supportive of each other.
Man, what a lousy way to earn a living, I think that sometimes, y'know. Then you hear about the ones who makes jokes about their patients, and my sympathy just runs cold. Which isn't fair to the nice ones.
