Analyze This!

Do you know anyone who studied or got a degree in psychology?

Two acquaintances from my past did and as I got to know them better, I came to believe they studied psychology because each one was "quite a case".

Others with whom I've discussed this agreed. They, too, knew psych majors, only to arrive at the same conclusion: those who studied the subject were, indeed, in need of analyzing.

I'm not knocking therapy for I understand it has done volumes of good for many who have sought help or relief from what ails them. But imagine telling your troubles to someone who may be even more troubled.

Notice the root word of analyze is "anal".
