Is there any cogent reason WHY people would choose illness over wellness? Anything that makes sense to you?

Munchausen's  is a disease that has people who make make that exact choice.

Munchausen syndrome is a factitious disorder, a mental disorder in which a person repeatedly and deliberately acts as if he or she has a physical or mental illness when he or she is not really sick.Munchausen syndrome is considered a mental illness because it is associated with severe emotional difficulties.


This definition does not go far enough.  People who suffer actually MAKE themselves sick so they can be admitted to a hospital and get the attention they so desperately think they need. This post was edited by WM BARR . =ABSOLUTE TRASH at March 28, 2019 4:48 AM MDT
