I was at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science, and was talking to a friend why I hate the infra-red camera, and I showed him why: if blue is cold, and white is hot, then why was I blue and green on the extremities?

We also don't seek treatment for fake illnesses.

I found an interesting thing that may be of interest to you or your councellor from the DSM IV. Here is the link to it: http://psyweb.com/Mdisord/jsp/somatization.jsp It is on somatization disorder. Could somatization disorder be a bi-product of biid? Talk it over. Hi there. I found an interesting thing that may be of interest to you or your councellor from the DSM IV.

I'm *so* glad you finally went and that you found good value in your meeting. I'm very glad she agrees about the wheelchair as a therapeutic tool. Points #1 and #2, well, yeah... Doh. Surely you knew that about yourself? :) Point #3, what the heck have I been telling you for all these months? :) Point #4, is a very good insight. So now the question is, how are you going to handle your parents with that support you are getting from your therapist? :) No need to answer at this point, just something for you to think of.
