sunshyne #3.1 sunshyneOG 2004

i cant pick one. im a nurses daughter.

fivezero #4 fivezeroOG 2003

I picked addictions. BUT I become irrationally annoyed when someones playing up their allergies and it just goes on and on, forever! SUCK. IT. UP.

Ok, I'm crazy.

thatdarngirl #4.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

Allergies can really suck majorly. I'm always afraid I'm playing up mine but then when the season is over and I feel wonderful I realize how awful I felt.

fivezero #5 fivezeroOG 2003

Ok, I don't think a lot of people know what gestation is.

sunshyne #5.1 sunshyneOG 2004

umm...have a little faith in the intelligence of your fellow ezabelers.

i can't vote because these weren't listed: carpal tunnel, tmj disorder, migraines, skin issues.

sunshyne #6.1 sunshyneOG 2004

i just read an article about how everyone thinks they have sensitive skin but under 10% of the population actually does.

forrestina #6.1.1 forrestinaOG 2002

really it's the princess and the pea syndrome

iwz #6.2 iwz

my jaw cracks and pops and gets sore. sometimes it gets stuck. i think in my case, i really do have TMJ. if it's not that, it's a misshapen jaw. or something.

sunshyne #6.2.1 sunshyneOG 2004

me too! also, i grind my teeth (so do some of my sisters) and my jaw also does a wacky wave thing when i open and close my mouth like a creaky old screen door.

You're Wackjaw McGillicutti

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004

#6.2.2 toxicgirlOG 2003

if it gets stuck, yeah you have TMJ disorder. but i get a lot of patients who tell me that they have TMJ cuz it pops. i really want to say, so does mine big whoop.

thefunkyfresh #6.2.2.1 thefunkyfreshFounder

yeah i have tmj disorder, i'm actually getting PT for it right now. it was getting so bad over the course of 3 or 4 years that i could barely eat without being in pain. i was getting crazy headaches all the time and crap. if u looked at me straight on u could tell that my whole face was out of alignment from it. but its gotten A LOT better, it's not 100% yet but its slowly improving.

originalsnob originalsnobOG 2004

NOooo sounds terribly uncomfortable, is PT a medication? What causes this?

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004

pt = physical therapy

thefunkyfresh thefunkyfreshFounder

as stated, pt=physical therapy. in my case, i think i recieved one too many shots to the face playing basketball or football, then just aggravating it over the years

web-toedchloe #7 web-toedchloeOG 2001

Man, I didn't even notice "leprosy".

I love the Simpsons when Burns puts his finger in Homer's drink and says, "Whoops, my fingernail seems to have fallen off. Well, that's leprosy for you." :) :) That just made me smile.

deanh77 #7.1 deanh77Founder

haha. I just added it.

deanh77 #7.2 deanh77Founder

see, now, if homer replied, "You don't have leprosy, it's all in your head." And then drank from the cup and choked on the nail... That would have been funny.

yay #8 yayOG 2004

A.D.D would be another great candidate

juicymango #8.1 juicymangoOG 2003

but I have ADD in my head@

perrin #9 perrinOG 2004

Addictions are sometimes just all in your head but most of the time they aren't, we have been talking about addictions in my psych class and it's rather interesting how addictions work.

juicymango #9.1 juicymangoOG 2003

It's interesting how many people answered "addictions" to this poll. It's interesting to see. Addictions are misunderstood i think.

perrin #9.1.1 perrinOG 2004

Yeah I have to agree.

juicymango #9.1.1.1 juicymangoOG 2003

something someone said this weekend made me feel totaly differently about this topic. Comparing addictions to a void that you are compelled to fill. That void will never be filled no matter how many dragons and snakes you throw into it and it will just eat you up from inside out. And you just have to find a different way to deal with the void. I duno, it was just interesting.

ilikebirds #9.2 ilikebirdsOG 2002

addictions is too general. there are chemical addictions, physical addictions, mental addictions, poop addictions, and then there are FURRIES

sunshyne #9.2.1 sunshyneOG 2004

there is a difference between addiction and fetish.

fivezero #9.2.1.1 fivezeroOG 2003

like those really hot PLUSHIES?

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004

exactly.

seriously, what i mean is there are real physical and pyscological addictions, dependancies, obsessions and compulsions. then there are habitual preoccupations, attachments and fixations. both can be a struggle to deal with but you can form new habits just by practice whereas addiction can be with you for the rest of this system.

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

WAIT! there aren't going to be any PLUSHIES in the new system?!

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004

i dont recall saying that.

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

Just checking.

ekulu #10 ekuluOG 2002

I think "pregnancy" should've been on the list

thatdarngirl #10.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

This is true.

sunshyne #10.1.1 sunshyneOG 2004

it is. "gestation"

iwz #10.1.1.1 iwz

lol

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004

who are you laughing at? there are no dumb questions. only dumb answers.

iwz iwz

I'm laughing at ekulu and thatdarngirl with you. we're making fun of them together.

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

and i make three [3]

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002

tear

thatdarngirl #10.1.1.2 thatdarngirlOG 2002

It's funny because later I was reading something and the word gestation was there and I went "Hey..I know what that means!"

reaf #11 reafOG 2002

ha ha, i cant pick any of these, i dont think any if them are IN Your Head.. i think maybe if mulitple personalities was in there, or O.C.D which im pretty sure I have with numbers. I'd pic those.
