I Can’t Stand The Colour Green

“Doctor, doctor I can’t stand the colour green! There is just too much green in the world for me. Everywhere I look I notice shades of green.”

The doctor looked up from his notes and peered intently into my eyes. He looked me over like I was a cut of meat in the refrigerated supermarket aisle.

“Green is a bad colour, Doc. It makes me feel like puking. Every time I see the colour green I experience a constriction in my throat, like I’m choking. I see green and I am immediately nauseous. I just don’t know what is wrong with me.”
