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.
