As the parliamentary session reopens, there’s been a worrying surge in cases of depression among politicians. With the help of that friend who is a really good listener, and armed with some pop psychology we read on the back of an organic OJ carton, BK has created this short self-test quiz so our new MPs can identify if it’s time to start popping the Prozac.1. Do you feel miserable and sad? Do you ever feel like it’s constantly raining? Do your feet feel wet after lunch?2. Are you feeling indifferent about the opening of the new parliamentary session? Do you feel that the same promises that used to excite you during the elections are now going to be really boring to actually carry out?3. Have you lost interest in activities you used to enjoy? Does the prospect of going out shaking hands and handing out envelopes stuffed with cash fill you with dread?4. Do you get frightened and panicky for no reason at all, like when you are flying in military helicopters or talking to the Election Commission?5. Do you have crying spells? Do you watch Abhisit reduced to playing charity football matches and start to sob hysterically, moaning “Why! Why! Why have we been forsaken? (Please count a yes to this question as two points.)6. Do you get tired easily? Do you worry that you’ll spend the next four years being caught on TV dozing off during the parliamentary debates?7. Do you find it hard to sleep at night because you sleep so much during the day? Do you need a soapy massage and a bottle of Blue Label whiskyto fall asleep?8. Are you more irritable? Do you feel like sacking all your predecessor’s protégés, burning their homes and stripping them of their riches? Do you feel like it’s payback time?If you answered yes to all the above questions, you may be depressed. Take some drugs, try to laugh heartily once a day and indulge in some long karaoke sessions.
