The following is the log taken when I chatted with the Doctor in Emacs. Note that some of my expressions are non-standard (grammatically incorrect), because English is not my first language. Some of you might find it interesting to see how the Doctor reacted when I used incorrect English.

I am the psychotherapist.  Please, describe your problems.  Each time
you are finished talking, type RET twice.

I don't like home delivery.

Why do you say you do not like home delivery?

Because they come.

Can you elaborate on that?

I'm not sure.

Is it because of your plans that you say you are not sure?

What do you mean "your plans"?

Maybe your life have something to do with this.

That's right. In my life I am not used to communicating with somebody.

What makes you believe that?

I don't like talking with somebody.

Are you sure that you do not like talking with somebody?

I think I am. I would be tired.

Is it because of the people you hang around with that you are going
through all this?

No. I don't hang around with people in the first place.

I don't understand.

In a word I don't have so many friends.

How do you reconcile problems at school?

Well... I hate the school but I have no big problems because I do well
at school. I am a goody-goody type.

Why do you hate the school?

Because there are too many people. Too crowded. Too noisy. And the
classes are too immature.

Is it because there are too many people too crowded too noisy and the
classes are too immature that you came to me?

No, no, my problem is that I hate home delivery as I first mentioned.

Does it bother you that you hate home delivery as you first mentioned?

Sure. Because they will come today with the HD I've ordered. They will
come at any moment now!

When did you first know that they will come today with the hd you have
ordered they will come at any moment now?

I asked them to deliver it on the morning today, because I'd like to
know when they come beforehand so I wouldn't be surprised.

Is the fact that you would like to know when they come beforehand so
you would not be surprised the real reason?

Reason of what?

Perhaps this has something to do with any hobbies you have?

Maybe. Do you think it abnormal to chat with some computer program?

You have your mind on computers, it seems.

Yes. I like them because they are clean.

Is it because of your sex life that you say yes you like them because
they are clean?

I'd say no. Because I have no sex life.

Does the fact that you have no sex life explain anything else?

Yes, it may explain the fact that I don't understand human beings well.

Are you sure you do not understand human beings well?

Not so sure. I think I mostly understand them. But you know they would
say "Children wouldn't understand this."

Is it because I know they would say children would not understand this
that you came to me?

No. I'd say your answer is a bit absurd.

Earlier you said you hate the school?

Yes. I don't hate it in fact. I did hate it, and so I have stopped
going to school, and so I have no reason to hate it now. I have
notihng to do with it.

Have you been afraid of that?

Not really. Because I am qualified to enter a university, even if I
wouldn't have finished high school.

Tell me about your school.

It's a funny place: you are an honor student if you speak English!

Possibly hangups you have are related to this.

No, no, I am being hung up because they have not yet come. Home delivery, I mean.

Are you annoyed that they have not yet come home delivery you mean?

Yes! They should come now if they will. "On the morging today" is too
vague. I have been suspended for long time to synchronize with
them.

Do you really think that?

Sure. They will demand real-time priority when they knocked at my
door. If I ignore the signal, they will return with my hard disk.

What happened when they knocked at your door if you ignore the signal
they will return with your hard disk?

Maybe they will come again tomorrow and I would be hung up
longer. They might even phone me, which is really threatening, isn't it?

You mentioned that there are too many people too crowded too noisy and
the classes are too immature?

Yes.

I see...  Well, what makes you think this is so?

The classroom is in disorder. Dont't you think so?

Is it because of your inhibitions that you are going through all this?

It was. As I said I have stopped to stand them.

I don't understand.

I mean I won't go school any longer.

Did you ever regret your grades could improve?

No. They always give me A+.

Why do you say you hate home delivery as you first mentioned?

Because they really come any moment right now!

When did you first know that they really come any moment right now?

Because it is today that I asked them to come. Well but I will be
upset more if they won't come in time. In fact I don't know they will
really come today. But I think they will.

Is the fact that it is today that you asked them to come well but you
will be upset more if they will not come in time in fact you do not
know they will really come today but you think they will the real
reason?

Hey, your algorithm seems silly now even though you use "You" and "I" perfectly.

How do you reconcile some problems in your childhood?

I was not so sensitive.

What makes you believe you were not so sensitive?

I am really forgetful.

Earlier you said they will come today with the hd you have ordered
they will come at any moment now?

Yes. I want them to come now if they will really come. I need another
hard disk...eh maybe they have come.

Maybe this is related to some problems at home?

...no not yet...or I am being cowered when I feel someone at my
door. Yes this is a problem at home.

What would happen if you feel someone at your door yes this is a
problem at home?

The doorbell might ring at the next moment. And I will be
surprised. And then I will behave as if I wouldn't have any problems.

Perhaps your plans could have caused this.

I plan to behave as if I am a normal kid.

You mentioned that you would like to know when they come beforehand so
you would not be surprised?

Yes! Yes!

Is it because of your life that you are going through all this?

I could say yes.

Is it because of the people you hang around with that you say you
could say yes?

Not really.

Are you sure that you have no sex life?

Yes.

Yes, hmmm... so, do you really think this is so?

I don't understand: what do you mean "this is so"?

How do you reconcile problems at school?

I don't reconcile problems: I just don't go to school.

Have you been frightened by school?

A good question. But I don't think I have.

Does the fact that you do not think you have explain anything else?

I'm afraid not.

What makes you think you are scared of something?

Something that happens unexpectedly.

I would appreciate it if you would continue.

I don't like I am surprised by something that happens unexpectedly.

Go on, don't be afraid.

People should behave in good order.

Why do you say people should behave in good order?

Because they disturb me in reality. This may sound selfish though.

Are you positive they disturb you in reality this may sound selfish
though?

I am positive the fact that they disturb me, but my attitude toward
that is never positive.

Is it because they disturb you but your attitude toward that is not
ever positive that you came to me?

Yes! You are so smart.

Earlier you said you do not understand human beings well?

Yes.

I understand.  So what makes you believe this is so?

Well nobody would understand human beings perfectly, I guess. And that
is not a problem for me.

Are you sorry is not a problem for you?

No. You dont't need to understand them perfectly.

Are you sure that dont't might want to understand?

Oh. My spelling was wrong and yours too?

Possibly this could be the reason for any hobbies you have?

I don't understand what you mean.

Is it because of your sex life that you say you do not understand what
I mean?

I don't think so.

You mentioned that I know they would say children would not understand
this?

Yes?

Oh. ...And do you really think this is so?

By the way it is eleven o'clock now. Will they really come on the
morning today? They should come before noon!!!

Maybe hangups you have could be the reason for this.

OF course!

What makes you think of course?

I am uneasy because they will come any moment now. And I have another
reason now: it is another problem that they really come in time.

When did you first know that they really come in time?

Sorry. I mean I am not sure WHETHER they will come in time or not.
 
Why do you say you hate the school?

Because you asked something. I forget.

Is the fact that I asked something you forget the real reason?

I forget the real reason why I said "I hate the school." I do not hate
school so much.

Perhaps this is caused by to your attitude.

I don't understand your expression. I don't hate the school: rather, I am
not interested in schools.

Have you been absent often?

Yes.

I see...  Then what makes you believe this is so?

What do you mean?

Is it because of your inhibitions that you are going through all this?

You have asked the same question, don't you?

Have you been afraid of that?

No, interesting.

Earlier you said they have not yet come home delivery you mean?

That reminds me: Will they really come before noon?

Does the fact that reminds you will they really come before noon
explain anything else?

Maybe the company is loose...

How do you reconcile some problems in your childhood?

Ok. That's all for today. My conclusion is that you are under the
delusion that you are a psychiatrist!

Are you certain I am under the delusion that I am a psychiatrist?

What do you think about it?

Is it because of some problems at home that you say what do I think
about it?

I belive that your speech center is in disorder too!

Is it because my speech center is in disorder too that you came to me?

Yes, I am a doctor!

You mentioned that there are too many people too crowded too noisy and
the classes are too immature?

OK. You want to talk and talk and talk, but I want to quit
talking. Thank you very much!

How does it feel to want?

Thank you!

Possibly this is because of your plans?

Bye.

My secretary will send you a bill.
