RESPONSE :
Patients with psychoses do not pose a problem, they go into remissions and
relapses. But neurosis patients, specially with personality pattern disorders,
having distorted self-image can be difficult and resistant.  But applying 
Dilbert's dictum is not
the only solution. One can always refer such patients to another crack
scientist; like in the scene below:                                             
   

A timid person
enters the consulting room of a psychiatrist and says: “Doctor, I have dual
personality.”                                    

Psychiatrist: “Buck
up my child, have your seat; let’s all four sit down and chat.”
