Breaking It Down

So for my sixth hour, it was Dr. Ross' lunch break and he walked me to his private office and sat me down. He asked me if I had any questions about the experience that I was having so far and he would be more than happy to answer any questions that I had. So I first asked about the worst patient that he's ever had. He told me that he honestly has a lot of "mental" patients. He explained that he gets tons of patients who just go to him because they are mentally broken and think that physical tunings to the body can heal their pains physically and mentally. He also told me about this one lady who used to write down a list of every single task that she did and how it affected her body - even though her physique was 100% fine. It made me feel nervous about wanting to pursue this as my career because I didn't feel like I would be able to support these patients regardless of what type of adjustments they were looking for in their lives.
