So, I filed a report today regarding some guy who verbally lashed out at a police officer... and now I'm wondering—what should I actually tell my doctor to include in my medical records? I want it documented how much stress this caused me and exactly what he said to me, just so there's a paper trail if I try to go after some compensation later.
Can I claim things like nausea, headaches, general weakness, or maybe tremors in my hands?
Do you think a doctor would actually sign off on that? Does anyone have any advice?

You can't get any sleep because you're constantly looking over your shoulder, terrified that someone's going to jump out and attack you again.

Honestly, someone needs to get this person a therapist.

I mean...
just picture being a psychiatrist for a second...

first thing in the morning, you've got some guy dealing with schizophrenia he's been fighting for five or six years... so you're just sitting there listening to him ramble about satellites and aliens...

then, maybe two vets with PTSD roll in, talking about combat and guts and all that gruesome stuff they saw over there...

after that, there's a woman with a bruised eye because her husband beat her for the fifth time this month... I guess...

and then finally, you get the guy who literally wet himself because someone made a threat against him...

Honestly, you guys really shouldn't sweat the small stuff when it comes to what might seem "weird" to a psychiatrist... I mean, these folks have seen some seriously out-there stuff in their time! Seriously, don't go worrying about whether something you say or do is going to look bizarre to them, because at the end of the day, psychiatrists are basically trained to expect the unexpected—that’s just how the job works! 😬

Look, I was just messing around because amidst this absolute mountain of problems, someone actually thinks they can pull a fast one and scam people out of their money (which is something I would never do, obviously—I’m probably the most honest guy you'll ever meet)...

You reported someone for verbal assault? What even is that? Are you kidding me?

He actually threatened to get me fired,
so I filed a formal report with HR.
Now, I’m thinking about how to maybe leverage this situation to get a little something extra out of it. 🙂

Aha. To sounded like, "He called me an idiot, so I called the cops on him." 🙂

Now I'm looking to squeeze a little extra out of the situation.🙂

Why don't you just head over to Law School? Honestly, this has nothing to do with medical issues. Or maybe it does.😁
