Q. Depressive? How many jokes do you need a day to have at least one smile in your face? To be depressive is no fun. I started my depression 26 years ago. During 12 years I could not laugh loud anymore. You know - the " lol " in your chats. So my personal medication were jokes, comedy films on tv or to rent a funny VHS or DVD from a store and have the fun that I needed to forget a little bit all my trouble. Find out what you need. Here I will put from time to time a joke, to keep you laughing a little.

A. It happens in Harlem...
A man is crossing slowly the streets to find a prostitute.
Many are standing there and he choose one.
Together they walk to her bedroom.
She deems the light down and starts to take her clothes off.
She takes off her wig, then she takes out of her mouth her false teeth, when she has no trousers anymore on, she puts away her left prosthesis, then she lays on the bed and takes her fake right hand and puts in at the side.
The man is already undressed and can't believe his eyes. He opens the window, then he takes all his clothes, his shoes and throw it out the window down to the street.
"Hey man? What are you doing - are you crayizy?"
"Look, before I will be able to come in erection with you, all my clothes and shoes will be out of fashion!"

Q. My brother who is facing high depression, how can a psychiatrist help for that? My brother who is facing high depression is sent to the psychiatrist by a doctor. He was already on some medicines for which he was not responding well. I don’t know what a psychiatrist did, he just asked some questions and that’s it. Doctor takes it as a case of bipolar…..how can a psychiatrist help for that?

A. Your brother is on the right path. The process of getting a diagnosis and starting treatment can be long and tedious but it is essential. Encourage him to continue seeing the psyciatrist and to take the medications that the dr perscribes. In time it will get better.

Q. What do you think is the most serious nutritional issue facing us in an industrialized society today? I am very careful about taking care of my health. I never ever left my stomach empty. I always eat a nutritional diet. I am staying away from parents to support their financial needs. So I take more care with my health. If I am in good health then my family will be healthy. I often do a lot of research regarding my diet. I am very careful about that. If you are a dietician, please tell me what do you think is the most serious nutritional issue facing us in an industrialized society today?

A. PS...THE DYE IN FOOD....has been linked to cancer.
