It's been years since he's had a good night's sleep. Worse than that, his progress has been very poor and he knows it. So, one day he stops seeing the psychoanalyst and decides to try something different.
A few weeks later, Joe bumps into his former psychoanalyst in the supermarket. The specialist is really surprised to find Joe looking rested, energetic, and cheerful.
"Doc!" Joe says, "It's amazing! I'm cured!"
"That's great news!" the psychoanalyst says. "You seem to be doing much better. How has this happened?"
"Well I went to see another doctor," Joe says enthusiastically, "and he cured me in just ONE session!"
"Just one session?" the psychoanalyst asks incredulously.
"Yeah," continues Joe, "my new doctor is a behaviourist."
"A behaviourist?" the psychoanalyst asks. "So how did he manage to cure you in only one session?"
"Oh, easy," says Joe. "He told me to cut the legs off of my bed."
