Oh my god I think I have maybe all of those! I am going to google the symptoms right now :/

was just thinking that people can be physiologically ill or mentally ill but what about existentially ill? When I put some more research into this and dub myself the first existential physician i'm going to be prescribing long walks in the woods and reading Kafka :P

I like the idea a lot. what kafka should I start with?

[the_blackwolf]

'The Metamorphosis' for sure!
