Agreed.

My intent was simply to move the thread back towards its original topic which was not a discussion over whether or not BP can be caused or triggered by external things, but how to differentiate between symptoms and run of the mill emotions. I sort of felt like my first post that used the word "external" may have unintentionally started this debate and it felt like it was gettting a bit contentious. For whatever reason certain statements made here hit a nerve for me. Sorry. Anyway here is where I bow out of this thread. Take care everybody.
