The Patient and The Cure

MADISON, WI (YIFTM) – It was announced yesterday by a joint commission of medical practitioners and psychiatrists, that in certain cases, depression may be cured by sexual intercourse.

“Yes, this works,” stated Kenneth Banya, MD, a world renowned “follow-up” psychiatrist. “In fact, based on these findings, I’d have to say it’s the best. It’s gold!”

Rather than study a large and varied group of disturbed individuals, the commission focused on one test subject; a 27 year old Asian male.

The group diagnosed said individual as clinically and situationally depressed.

“He also displayed characteristic traits not uncommon with folks who exhibit high levels of anxiety,” commented Dr. Jeff Peronto. “This subject had a lot of “schtick” if you know what I mean.”

Studies showed high levels of stress and anxiety stemming from childhood trauma, job related stress, and self doubt led to this patient’s depression. All of which was cured, at least momentarily, by intercourse with the subject’s significant other.

“We’re very pleased with the patient’s progress,” said Peronto, but also warned, “This may be short term. He may relapse into old habits, so we will continue to monitor his progress. I don’t think we’re out of the woods yet. No pun intended.”

When asked for comment, the 27 year old male summarized, “It’s amazing what pussy will do to balance your chemicals.”
