That must be why so many EBT cards are issued .... a veritable plague of people unable to “exert” ... another factoid brought to you by the people who brought you “Climate Change”.

I used to have a lady friend that would “develop” the symptoms of any new malady that was touted. We finally parted because of her hypochondria. Hope she doesn’t see this.
Let's get this done!
Less than $4.4k to go!!

I think it’s somewhat common in some degree or another. Like people want to know they’re loved or something. The reverse neurosis is even creepier: People who want you to be sick so they can care for you. That’s ultra-creeporama in my book.

Here come the lawsuits and disability claims.

That describes the Dem party platform.One facet of it, at least. The Left does seem to embody every self-serving motive in one way or another.

I meant to post this latest research published this week in my opening comment, but due to my ME/CFS, I forgot! There seems to be a post-viral syndrome that some people never recover from, usually from a mononucleosis-type virus.

You and me both! In my case, I have been diagnosed with ME/CFS for 15 years and in the past year had found in my blood reactivated HHV-4 and HHV-6!
My fasting cortisol tested at 25.7 the other day at 8:30 AM and my doc asked whether I had stayed up all night before the test! I thought she was joking at first, but she was dead serious...

I once dated a girl that had this. She told me that it almost destroyed her life, because before she was very athletic and driven to achieve. Afterwards, any driven activity would cause her to crash. She had to pace her life and avoid almost everything that made her happy. Basically it took a very active person and put her in a perpetual slow lane.
Really sad, because it impacted almost everything she did. She was definitely not a hypochondriac and seemed really well mentally balanced.
