Considering that Li Mu came three times, and all three times he said that he might have amnesia, rage, and terrible fantasies, Mu Chun opened the drawer and asked Li Mu to complete a set of scale tests.

The test lasted for 20 minutes, and Li Mu answered all the questions very carefully.

According to the results of the scale, Li Mu had extensive anxiety and hallucinations.

The latter attracted Mu Chun's attention, and when Li Mu first came to the psychosomatic outpatient clinic, Mu Chun noticed that there might be some hallucinations in him.

Li Mu seems to be a man with a quick mind and high requirements for himself, and knows very well that he can help himself through difficulties through doctors.

"Isn't it serious? What kind of mental illness do I have? Li Mu asked as patiently as possible.

"How many hours a day do you sleep now?" Mu Chun asked.

"Not necessarily, I've been recording shows lately, and the time I get home is usually between two and four o'clock in the morning, although I try to sleep when I get home, but I don't fall asleep quickly every time, and I can't sleep late, basically just 4-5 hours."

Li Mu became more and more anxious as he spoke, "I can describe it as anxious now. ”

"Is it because of those hallucinations of yours?" Mu Chun asked?

"No, I don't think it's a hallucination, it's real, I'm going to find my neighbor today" Li Mu told Mu Chun that he suspected that there was a water leak upstairs and found that it was not an upstairs leak at all, but something terrible on the ceiling of the bathroom at his house.

Mu Chun listened attentively, and then said, "It's a cat?" ”

Li Mu's eyes widened in shock, "Doctor, what did you say?" ”

"I said maybe there's a cat in the ceiling." Mu Chun repeated.

"No, no, how is it possible?" Li Mu kept shaking his head, how could it be a cat?

Now Li Mu would rather believe that someone hid a corpse on the bathroom than believe that there was a cat on it, I don't know why, Li Mu just didn't want to think there.

"You see, there is blood on your car, that's because you saved a bloody cat in the grass yesterday, and then, you found the cat's barking and cat footprints in the bathroom many times, and you also saw blood on your wife's face and hands, and you were worried that you accidentally crushed a black cat in the neighborhood on the night you came back from the New Year's holiday. All of this is clearly directed at cats, and you don't want to admit it, do you? This logic is not difficult for you to understand and explain, and your real fear is not this. ”

Mu Chun's tone gradually changed from a mysterious story to a serious explanation, and Li Mu couldn't refute anything, because indeed, Mu Chun seemed to be saying something good.

"And I still have evidence, there must be a cat in your bathroom, do you want to find out?" Mu Chun tried to ask.

"Don't scare me, doctor, I'm actually scared of a cat." Li Mu sighed, got up and walked to the window, opened the window, and breathed a few big breaths of air outside the window.

"I had a patient here, an 80-year-old lady, who said she couldn't sleep every night and asked her why she couldn't sleep, and she said that she always heard the sound of a cat barking in the middle of the night, and it was a terrible scream." Mu Chun said slowly, and after finishing speaking, he leaned back on the chair and paid attention to Li Mu's expression.

"Screams?" Li Mu frowned.

"Yes." Mu Chun nodded.

Li Mu suddenly laughed, spread his hands and said: "What does that have to do with me, there are many reasons why the old man can't sleep, and it's not strange to hear a cat barking or something." ”

"Yes, I wouldn't have thought it strange if it was just the meow of a cat, but this old lady lives in your neighborhood, and besides, I compared the addresses of your two families just now, and this old lady lives on the same floor as you."

Mu Chun's eyes were full of worry, he looked at Li Mu, chasing Li Mu's eyes, but Li Mu turned his face sideways.

"Maybe it's a coincidence." Li Mu said softly.

"Yes, I think it's a coincidence. So I prescribed her a little sleep aid, urging the old lady to sleep well, and not to think about it when she can't sleep, how can there be cats barking outside in the middle of the night in this kind of winter, right? Mu Chun said.

"Yes, it should be, I just don't know, I'm afraid I did all these things, but I don't remember." After Li Mu finished speaking, he covered his face with his hands and rubbed his face several times.

Mu Chun got up and brought him a cup of hot water.

"Thank you." Li Mu took the cup and thanked him. "What did those questions just say? Am I mentally abnormal? ”

Mu Chun laughed and paced back and forth on the ground, "If you are about ten years younger than now, I may be inclined to pay attention to whether your insanity is the possibility of schizophrenia, because they look very similar, fantasy that is out of touch with reality, imaginary domestic violence, and all kinds of non-existent hallucinations, it really looks like that." ”

"That's what happened, wouldn't it be better if you gave me some medicine, would this illusion go away? When I have a rage attack, I see myself beating people, and then I hear the voice of a cat when I come home late at night, I guess it's a hallucination, and I still have amnesia, so I take some medicine and sleep well, will it be fine? ”

Li Mu was anxious to confirm that he did suffer from some kind of mental illness, and such patients were really rare.

But Mu Chun knew very well that Li Mu's situation was not so simple, he seemed to be delirious and hallucinated, partly because of his own health problems, long-term fatigue and endless work, lack of enough sleep, and even did not meet the minimum level of sleep requirements at all.

It doesn't seem difficult to assess mental illness under such work intensity and mental pressure, but once you easily come to the conclusion of schizophrenia symptoms, it will not be beneficial to Li Mu, and you may even be taking Li Mu in circles.

Mu Chun knew very well that what he needed now was to get enough sleep and recognize the essence of things.

The first is the problem of violent anger that he subjectively feels strongly, this problem does exist, according to the assessment results and Li Mu's supervisor's description, this situation can be clarified, for Li Mu's violent anger and anxiety problems, find the trigger cause, through 3-5 outpatient treatments can be effectively alleviated, this Mu Chun believes that Li Mu has a strong desire to ask for help, as long as he insists on treatment, he can quickly improve.

What bothered Mu Chun was Li Mu's [hallucination] and his inconsistent explanation of the hallucination.

This seems to contain something that Mu Chun has not yet noticed.

What exactly?

Li Mu clearly wanted to find out the cause of his hallucinations, and at the same time, he was also very eager to get treatment, so what caused him to be so blind to the reality that the [hallucinations] pointed to?

Could it be
