I Cannot Sneeze

I have a weird, unusual, condition. I continually get stuck sneezes. I get the urge to sneeze. I go Ahhh but the Choo will not come. This has been happening almost everyday for about the last eight months. I do occasionally complete a sneeze. It seems I finally sneeze just about the time I am totally out of my mind from not being able to do so. I have researched this problem for hundreds of hours. No good answers. I have discovered a very rare condition named “Asneezia” that kind of describes my problem. I am sure this condition is psychological. I have not sneezed in the last 5 weeks. I have only sneezed a total of about 5 times in the last eight months. I get the urge to but then I cannot release the sneeze. It is like an orgasm that cannot be completed. . I have asked everyone I know including various Doctors and they have no answer. Everyone tells me it is totally irrelevant whether a person ever sneezes or does not sneeze long as they do not try to stifle it. That can p...

MY PERSONAL STORY OF CRIPPLING OCD RUINING MY LIFE

David struggles to emerge from the giant bed that takes up about half of his studio apartment at the top of an old, stately, classy building on Chicago's lakefront. This sixty nine year old tall, grey haired, fair skinned Jewish guy struggles to get his arthritic and chronically pain ridden body out of that big bed that he often lies in for unconscionable amounts of time to escape the ferocious obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) that torments him. David is happy today. Many days he is rendered entirely helpless in his otherwise healthy body, his OCD  forcing him to lie in bed completely oblivious to anything other then the torment raging in his brain. He hardly exists. He usually stares at the ceiling thinking and thinking continually about something he is afraid to do but must. Today, he feels relief. He has a clear mind in so far as not needing to do something scary to relieve an irrational OCD demand. Today, he just feels depressed and helpless about his mise...

OCD All Over Me Again

Same old OCD torment again.. This urge to confront a guy I play softball with is  overwhelming.. I know that nothing good could come of it. I do not have anything against this guy.. But, I feel I must act out again to prove some kind of distorted courage to myself..  I am all overwhelmed and anxiety ridden about seeing him on the field tomorrow. It feels like there can be no relief unless I confront him about a perceived issue that he already apologized for. It is the same lifelong urge that makes an ocd person  check the lights or the stove or do a million other things to feel relief.. Only mine can get dangerous because I need apologies or physical  contact to get relief.. Usually, that only makes the  OCD . urge more complicated.  Fear of the feeling of anxiety eating away is my issue. So, I get  a reckless idea as to how to relieve it. Many times the solutions are dangerous. I have ended up in the hospital, in jail, in mental wards, an...

Match.com bad management and rip off rates.

Match.com sucks. They cancelled my subscription by accident. I had argued about  app $8.00 owed  to me and unpaid by match.com as they had promised. I have been a member almost since they opened.They are a bunch of pigs and Zina in customer service would rather argue then do business. Also, they are not keeping up with their competition. Phony pictures and profiles fill the match site. Their automatic renewal policy is a rip off as are their rates.They do not admit to the FREE memberships offered. The site allows people who are not online to appear as if they are. They never cancel memberships even when people have dropped out and do not pay match anymore. Try other services.  Match is composed of bad management.. .

Paying Peanuts To Bloggers From Google AdSense

AdSense is a mystery to me. Blogger is the free blogging site that Google owns and operates very efficiently. AdSense, owned by Google, keeps track of what bloggers earn. AdSense is mutually beneficial for both Google and bloggers who are paid by the amount of times their blog is clicked on.. Ad revenues are generated toward Google advertisers whose ads are placed on the same pages along with the blogs. So, it's a quid pro quo more or less. Less for any bloggers except the best and most popular who are a special few who work endlessly and are very talented. and get a lot of traffic. I have been owed $85.24 from Google AdSense for several years. Today, I again got interested in figuring out how to get paid.  I know that you must earn $100.00 to formally be entitled to receive a payment from Google AdSense.  However, I am sure Google pays small sums for things they need even when the amount  is less then $100.00. They need bloggers.. There is lots of competition for...

Help For Hydrocephalus Sufferers

Going into the hospital on Wednesday July 19. The Dr.  will put a shunt in my head to funnel the water on my brain into the shunt and drain it harmlessly into my stomach. That will hopefully correct and relieve the weakness and inability to use my legs without a cane, and hopefully the shunt will restore my short term memory which is all but gone. This condition I have is called Hydrocephalus. Most people do not know about it because it only effects a very small segment of people. There is a wonderful place called the Hydrocephalus Association at 4340 East West Highway  Suite 905 in Bethesda MD 20814. They perform a great service with literature, videos, personal contacts, and recommendations.. There are no charges.  Just help. The number is 301-202-3811 and the email is info@HYDROASSoc.org Hope this help someone..
