You ask this on the premise that everyone is special. They are not. If everyone were special to themselves we would not need shrinks.
It is NOT my premise. It is what some respondents have said in some of my question threads Ele. "Everyone is special". I see it all the time. So that is why I asked the question. Thank you for your reply.

1. Who said everyone is?
2. Even if they are, what does it matter.
3. You are only special if you feel it is true. And we KNOW most people don't believe it IS true.
