Told by Rabbi Lionel Blue on Thought for the day, Radio 4, Monday
29th July 1991.

A Jewish young man was seeing a psychiatrist for an eating and
sleeping disorder.

I am so obsessed with my mother… As soon as I go to sleep, I start
dreaming, and everyone in my dream turns into my mother. I wake up in
such a state, all I can do is go downstairs and eat a piece of toast.

The psychiatrist replies:

What, just one piece of toast, for a big boy like you?
