I see what you're getting at...that the same/or similar terms are used by people to describe something that one wouldn't understand unless they too have experienced it....like it probably is more than just a coincidence that so many use similar terms and descriptions for it, and perhaps it can be used in diagnostic material, or maybe it can help docs / scientists discover what it is that causes others to feel this way (if it's a biological or physiological thing that is)....

I just don't understand what other types of things to write about or describe...i am probably going to be putting up a post later that may have to do with what you're looking for
