Paranoia & First Aid, Period 3, 14 May '08
"Good afternoon," said Mohinder from the front of the classroom, leaning against the wall as everyone filed in. "I'm Dr Mohinder Suresh, this is 'Paranois and First Aid', and I sincerely hope none of you will need any of the skills taught in this workshop." He paused in thought, a moment. "Optimism aside, I can't say that's entirely likely though."
"But first, introductions - I'm sure you've done this in your other workshops, so..." Mohinder shrugged. "You know how this works. Name, where you come from, blood type, and any allergies or serious injuries you may have." Glancing down at the notes on the desk beside him, Mohinder looked back up and added, "And this is where you tell me of any medical skills or healing abilities you have."
After the introductions Mohinder, now sitting on his desk, said, "Paranoia is an irrational fear of danger, even persecution, from others." He leant forward, intent, "The key here is irrational. When the stakes are high and the danger similarly great, how do we accurately judge a threat? Does our behaviour become become paranoid when we can no longer explain it to others?"
[OCD is up!]
