Dear Doctor El, I have this imaginary friend who NEVER shuts up, and I can hardly hear myself think with all that noise in my head! What am I to do? Oh, and perhaps on a different note, sometimes when I'm sitting in public somewhere but alone, like a bank or a park, something funny will come to mind and I won't be able to help but laugh, but then mothers herd around their small children and people take two steps away from that crazy lady on the bench, giggling all by herself. I must look like a complete nutter-butter, I realize that, but I don't want people to think I'm completely insane, and I don't think standing up on my chair and shouting "Wait, come back, I'm not crazy!" will do much help for my case. How can I avoid looking like the local nut-house escapee when I'm out and about running errands and such?
