dream: Tom Cruise was my pdoc

Posted by pseudoname on June 15, 2006, at 11:03:10

I dreamed last night that Tom Cruise, in addition to being a movie star, had gone back to school part-time and had become a licensed psychiatrist. He chased me all over this huge underground area, like in an adventure movie, with boats and cars that didn't start and everything. Finally he caught up with me in the front of a Dodge van, also in this huge dark underground area.

He took me off the buprenorphine and wrote me a script for 600 mg of Cipramil a day! I really felt bullied by him.

That's hilarious!

Golly, how to interpret this?

Do you feel bullied by your current pdoc?

Do you think about Tom Cruise a lot?

LOL

He's had a lot of publicity lately, pushing Scientology's hard-line crusade against psychotropic drugs for mental illness. I think this makes your dream all the more interesting.

That's really bad he took you off the bupe and put you on Cypramil.

(Nothing wrong with Cypramil, some of my best friends take it....600mg is a good dose?).

It's just that I'd be hoping for something else from his therapeutic armamentarium, something to help me remember names in time and improve my chess game. It's not for me to tell your psych how to treat you, but the combo is well known in his circles.

Maybe it wasn't really Tom Cruise...did you get a good look at his teeth?

LOL!

Yeah, pretty funny. I think it was triggered, though, by my recent doubts about my med. I had started wondering if it ever really was helpful at all. (It was.)

Anyway, I think that's why famously anti-psychiatric drug Tom was my temporary pdoc. He was from the doubting side of my brain.

> Do you think about Tom Cruise a lot?

Not since his great underwear dance of 1983  ;-)

He really was a lousy doctor. 600 mg is like 10 times the maximum dose!

I thought Cipramil was a stimulant (fat lot I know), and I'd been thinking that maybe I should try some more of those. So, in a way, he did give me what I wanted.

> the combo is well known in his circles

What combo? Cocaine and booze?

Thanks everyone, for your comments. (You too, 10derheart.)

Hi Deccie

>Cipramil. 600mg is a good dose?

600mg is an overdose!
