so today i was having a glance at what my condition might be. but the distance between the reality and the explained overview was massive. i.e. the symptoms explained/listed were very broad! so i looked into this further and found an interesting study. maybe this is the trap we all fall into ;) (obviously not all )... give it a gander ...

Just out of interest have you had a diagnosis from a Dr or self diagnosing using the Internet? It's odd how when I self diagnose using the Internet it always comes up with something horrendous like the Black Plague when it's in fact a cold.

Barnum statements are intereting, I had a friend who adapted them in order to pick up women by fooling them into thinking there was some sort of connection there because he "understood" them, not a nice thing to do.

Not what you're looking for?
