Yoda, I have bipolar syndrom and I am a psychologist. My mother said, and I quote "Oh my God, does this mean we have to lock the bedroom doors at night, you know, those people kill their whole families..."
I have trigger point syndrom, and nerve symptoms from a pinched disc in my neck and several possible injuries in the past. NO DOCTOR in any country I have lived in has taken my loss of sensation in my outer three fingers or the pain that seems to set in my bones that runs from my shoulders to my hands serious once they hear that I have a psychiatric history. A physical therapist I met at the pain rehab here ran an exam on me and felt that I have a lot of pain when he "provokes it" but the radiologists don't do that. They take the x-rays when you are nice and still and in a neutral position, so they rarely catch cases where movement affects the nerves. So, well, it's because I'm moderately whacked, right?

As if mental pain weren't enough...
