hunkpapap hunkpapapOG 2003 ·

FIRST OVTE!! WOOOHOOO! I rule..

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004 ·

i will have to think on this one.

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004 ·

i cant pick one. im a nurses daughter.

fivezero 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 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 fivezeroOG 2003 ·

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

sunshyne 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 sunshyneOG 2004 ·

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

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002 ·

really it's the princess and the pea syndrome

iwz 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 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.

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004 ·

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 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 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 deanh77Founder ·

haha. I just added it.

deanh77 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 yayOG 2004 ·

A.D.D would be another great candidate

juicymango juicymangoOG 2003 ·

but I have ADD in my head@

perrin 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 juicymangoOG 2003 ·

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

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

Yeah I have to agree.

juicymango 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 ilikebirdsOG 2002 ·

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

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004 ·

there is a difference between addiction and fetish.

fivezero 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 ekuluOG 2002 ·

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

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

This is true.

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004 ·

it is. "gestation"

iwz 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 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 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.
