english: They put all their heads together, and they decided that there was nothing that could be done for this surgeon who had essentially separated himself from the world, who by that time had become so overwhelmed, not just with depression and feelings of worthlessness and inadequacy, but with obsessional thinking, obsessional thinking about coincidences.
non_english: Ze staken de koppen bij elkaar en concludeerden dat er niets meer gedaan kon worden voor die chirurg, die de wereld de rug had toegekeerd. Die tegen die tijd zo overspoeld werd, niet alleen door depressie en gevoelens van waardeloosheid en ontoereikendheid, maar ook door obsessieve gedachten, obsessieve gedachten over toevalligheden.
