Picture a woman who keeps her mummified aunt at the dining table. A young man who arrives at therapy with a snake wrapped around his neck. A patient who believes he's the Terminator, sent from the future. These aren't horror movie plots-they're real cases that walked through the doors of some of the world's most respected therapists. "The Mummy at the Dining Room Table" pulls back the curtain on therapy's strangest moments, revealing what happens when human behavior defies every textbook and diagnostic manual. These stories matter because they expose a fundamental truth: the human mind is far stranger, more creative, and more resilient than we ever imagined. When we encounter someone whose reality seems incomprehensible, we're not just witnessing pathology-we're seeing the extraordinary lengths people go to survive their circumstances. These cases challenge us to ask: What would we do if we faced similar trauma, loss, or confusion? The answer might be stranger than we'd like to admit.
