Psychiatric Hotline (warning adult language)

I make fun but if you have a disorder get help.

Thank you for calling the Psychiatric Hotline. Please listen closely to your options.

 

Press 1 if you are passive/aggressive then sit down and stop that whining….no I’m sorry I really didn’t mean that. I love you.

 

Press 2222222222222222222222222 if you are obsessive/compulsive.

 

Press 3 if you are paranoid/delusional then hang up because we know who you are and we are coming to get you.

 

Press 4 & 5 if you have split personalities.

 

Press 6 if you are severely depressed. No one cares anyways.

 

Press 7 if you have Alzheimer’s...and we'll tell you what you need to know over and over again.

 

Press 8 if your fat ass is anorexic.

 

Press 9 if you think you have Tourettes you god@#$^%, stupid^&*(^^, I ought to kick your @$$.

"I make fun but if you have a disorder get help." 
 
Good advice but probably best if they don't call the help line, I think at, least not this one. 
Very funny and well observed. 
There's loads of potential for humour with help lines and you have tapped into it nicely with this. 
By adult language I presume you mean the hieroglyphics at the end. I don't think they merited a warning. 
I especially like 2 but they were all clever and funny.

Enjoyed this. Those bastards that run phone lines deserve much worse than this though. A series in here somewhere? And yes, funny.

Some good ones here, particularly liked 3, 4 & 5, and 6. I'm sure there'd be an option to hang on to speak to somebody, but instead the line cuts off or they just repeat the same menu again. 
 
Cheers, 
Ben

Sorry this threw up a flag for me as I have seen something fairly similar in joke email circulations.
