Complaints and garbage cans dialogue cold winter, the sky gray and wet, a north wind rose, from a high-rise building window floated out a series of complaints: “Why are these people always with me? ……” The complaints drifted with the wind to the plaza, where a middle-aged woman complained, “I obviously have a stomachache, but the results of my gastroscopy reported normal.” “I couldn’t sleep all night, my mood was bad.” Complaints kept floating in the air, and constantly encountered new complaints, fused with each other getting bigger and bigger, and finally crashed very heavily next to two garbage cans. Hubei Province Third People’s Hospital Psychiatric Psychology Department Huang Hua two barrels startled, recyclable barrels asked: “Who are you?” The non-recyclable bucket asked, “Are you recyclable, we’ve never seen you before?” Grumbling, “What do you guys do? Why do you all have little houses to live in?” The two buckets replied, “We specialize in storing human household waste, and humans collect us so as not to cause environmental pollution, and also classify us into recyclable and non-recyclable categories, with the aim of conserving limited resources.” Complaining, “Oh, humans are so smart, but why do they only emphasize the disposal of living garbage but neglect the disposal of mental garbage? Let me roam around and seriously affect people’s mood.” The two buckets came to a realization, “Yo, so you’re spiritual garbage ah, then we are brothers yo.” Complaining busily said, “I am not your brothers, I am the garbage of the superstructure, you are the garbage of the substructure, I am much more noble than you.” The two buckets said unhurriedly, “Mental garbage and living garbage belong to the same category of human garbage, and both need to be discarded. Emotional depression, low self-esteem, crankiness, insomnia, painful back-and-forth, are these noble? These mental garbage are far less happy than we are, and it is crippling and interfering with people’s work, study and life.” Whining down for a moment and blushing, he said, “So which one of you will take me in?” The two buckets said empathetically, “You might as well ask a psychiatrist, they’ll give you some advice and help you drop the whining and cheer up your mood. Complaining, bye-bye.” Huang Hua, Chief Physician, Department of Psychiatry, Zhongshan Hospital, Hubei Province, China
