I notice that quite a few philosophers die younger than I expect, given the affluent social groups they are from or connected to, such as Robert Nozick (63 years), G.A. Cohen (68 years), Bernard Williams (73 years), and Derek Parfit (74 years). Perhaps others suffer from mental health problems, beyond the quite mild problems I suffered from writing a lot in 2023, which led to quite a heavy-handed response by the NHS, I think. In this paper, I explain how to talk with a psychiatrist or mental health nurse, in a way which draws upon our skills as analytic philosophers. I refer to David Lewis when doing so, suspecting he is a bad influence!
