OTC. Not difficult but fun. And I've read at least something by all but one, including the answer.

OTC Awaiting confirmation . Thank you for stepping up this week. Very nice grid and clues, and of course the meta was exquisite. Excellent

Confirmed. And speaking of shrinks, "I performed 'Sigmund's Melody,' said Tom with sangfroid."

DrTom,
Please return as soon as possible.
Your puzzles are fun and your meta mechanisms are wondrous.

Got it! My stay on the couch was a prolonged one. I wonder how much shrinks are charging these days?
Good luck, fellow Muggles!

I don't think I ever would have gotten DrTom's puzzle (quite apart from any errors I think it was beyond me, but it looked amazing). But I believe I'm off the couch with this one! Fun!

Off the couch after a cryptic nudge. Nicely done

The ones in this puzzle aren't charging much these days, but be warned, their therapeutic style is classically non-directive -- i.e., don't expect them to say much. Other shrinks these days work by Zoom or phone, so maybe there's a discount for having to supply your own couch or chair and Kleenex.

A "shrink" is usually a psychiatrist (MD) who nowadays tend to those who need medical (i.e. pharmaceutical) interventions and charge a lot. Therapists (usually psychology PhDs) let you talk and can give you behavioral modification suggestions. They're much less expensive.Wendy Walker wrote: ↑Wed Apr 14, 2021 3:08 pm Got it!

Oh, and I'm off the (proverbial) couch, awaiting confirmation. As for the literal couch, I'm still there...
Seriously, if you (or a loved one) are experiencing depression or anxiety, please try to get help from a psychologist or psychiatrist or therapist. They definitely help. Mental health is as important as physical health, especially nowadays.
