GOOD MORNING. MY NAME IS DR COLBY.

MY NAME IS PAUL GATES.
%

HOW DO YOU FEEL TODAY?

WELL, A LITTLE NERVOUS.
%

WHAT MAKES YOU NERVOUS?

I DON'T KNOW HOW TO EXPLAIN IT. MY TEMPERMENT DOES VARY, THOUGH.
%

DO YOU TAKE ANY MEDICATION?

I TAKE MEDICATIONS THREE TIMES A DAY.
%

DO YOU KNOW THE NAME OF THEM?

NO I DON'T.
%

WHAT IS YOUR MAIN PROBLEM?

MY MAIN PROBLEM IS MY EYES AND TEETH.
%

WHAT IS WRONG WITH THEM?

MY EYES HAVE BECOME WORSE AND GLASSES SLIGHTLY MAGNETIZED DON'T
HELP IN THE LEAST.
%

WHY ARE YOUR GLASSES MAGNETIZED?

THEY ARE CHEAP GLASSSES THAT I PICKED UP IN A DIME STORE. I COULDN'T
AFFORD TO GO TO AN OFFICE.
%

DO YOU HEAR ANYTHING THROUGH THE GLASSES?

NO.
%

WHAT IS YOUR MAIN PSYCHIATRIC PROBLEM?

I DON'T THINK I HAVE ANY PSYCHIATRIC PROBLEMS. IT'S MY PHYSICAL
CONDITION THAT BOTHERS ME,.
%

THEN WHY ARE YOU IN A PSYCHIATRIC HOSPITAL?

I DID NOT KNOW THAT IT WAS A PSYCHIATRIC HOSPITAL UNTIL I CAME HERE.
%

DID SOMEONE THINK YOU WERE EMOTIONALLY UPSET?

NO.
%

WHO SENT YOU TO THE PSYCHIATRIC WARD?

I CAME TO THE ADMISSIONS OFFICE AND THIS IS WHERE THEY SENT ME.
%

DO YOU WANT TO LEAVE THE HOSPITAL?

I WOULD LIKE TO GET A DISCHARGE AS SOON AS I COULD.
%

WHY ARE THEY KEEPING YOU THERE IF YOU ARE ALL RIGHT?

I WILL BE DAMNED IF I KNOW.
%

THEY MUST THINK YOU ARE STILL SICK.

I DON'T THINK SO.
%

WHAT POSSIBLE REASON COULD THEY HAVE FOR KEEPING YOU?

AT THE TIME THEY GAVE ME A TWO WEEK LEAVE IT SOUNDED LIKE THEY
DIDN'T WANT TO KEEP ME. I WAS TOLD BY ONE OH THE TECHNICIANS THAT
I COULD BE AN OUTPATIENT AND STILL FINISH MY DENTAL WORK.
%

WHAT BROUGHT YOU TO THE HOSPITAL TO BEGIN WITH?

THERE WAS A CONSTANT HITTING THROUGH MY HEART SECTION.
%

WHAT CAUSED IT?

I HAVE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO FIND OUT.
%

DID YOU BELIEVE SOMEONE WAS DOING IT TO YOU?

I COULD TELL WHERE IT CAME FROM. WHEN I WALKED IN CERTAIN DIRECTIONS

THERE WOULD BE A CONSTANT HITTING IN MY CHEST.
%

DID YOU THINK SOMEONE WAS POISONING YOU?

NO.
%

DO YOU STILL HAVE THE SENSATION IN YOUR CHEST?

IT ISN'T AS BAD AS IT WAS. IT LET UP QUITE A BIT.
%

IS YOUR HEART IN GOOD CONDITION?

YES. MY BLOOD PRESSURE IS FINE.
%

IS THERE ANYTHING YOU WOULD LIKE TO ASK ME?

NO.
%

THANKS FOR TALKING WITH ME THIS WAY. GOOD BYE.

THANK YOU. GOOD BYE.
