Tim is a new patient to your mental health unit. He gets your attention, and when the two of you are alone he informs you that he has the secret to eternal youth.
 
   He offers to tell you, but he is unable to because they're out there hiding so they can steal it from me. I must be very careful. Your best therapeutic response to Tim is:
  A) Tim, I don't see anyone but you and me. It's time for dinner now. I'll walk with you to the dining room.
  B) Tim, nobody can have eternal youth. That's not realistic so don't talk about that anymore.
  C) I'd love to hear about it, Tim. Tell me your secret.
  D) I'll make sure 'they' are all gone, then you can tell me.
