Why do people tell you about their medical symptoms? Surely it is a lack of self awareness that makes them think that their boring symptoms could be of interest to anyone other than themselves. Hypochondria seems to be on the increase and could the NHS have anything to do with this as people have unlimited access to their doctors and can avail them of all their imaginary illnesses without paying what the market would normally stand - that is to say neurotic hypondriachs would under a private insurance system have to pay a higher premium,as would smokers,drinkers,drug addicts,and obese junk food addicts. The root of hypocondria and neurosis is surely our old suspect below alluded to: Self Pity.We live in a narcissistic,sollipsistic,self referential culture,encouraged to feel sorry for ourselves,fixating on our symptoms without exploring their psychosomatic root. No doctor is going to tell his patient that he or she is a neurotic self pitying excuse for a human being are they?They would be struck off and lose their profession.Hence a very unheathy collusion between patient and doctor has arisen, a conspiracy of evasion and silence and a catastrophic legal drug culture where people are addicted to medication that is treating the symptoms and ignoring the causes. |
