Art -I don't think you did anything to anybody.

It seems to me right now a good number of people are trying to take on responsibility for other people ithat just really isn't theirs -not just Art. People are apologizing all the time for stuff they couldn't possibly be responsible for.

Art- I find hypochondriacs to be very difficult for me to deal with. I'm not that sympathetic to them. I try not to be mean to them but We both (me and any hypochondriac) do better if I don't try and fix them or take care of them. For me, I sort of go about it as "it's your problem and you are choosing to live with it or are working on it ( depending on the situation) and I'm going to accept you're doing what you want to do and go on with my life. I wish you well with it." I can't fix them. I am friends with some hypochondriacs -but we've gotten to the point where we both just accept that I don't hang around and listen or get involved with the hypochondria
