wiki diagnosis

Sometimes, when I have an inordinately long amount of free time with no one to spend it with, or no good book to spend it on, I invariably end up spending hours just looking up psychological disorders on wikipedia.  The problem with that, is that it quickly devolves from a morbid fascination with extreme disorders, to a disturbingly accurate self-assessment and analysis while reading up on severe (though not extreme) psychological disorders.  Let's see all the ones I've been reading up on that gave me the heebie-jeebies and make me question if I need professional help:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_anxiety

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalized_anxiety_disorder

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuroticism

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shyness

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bipolar_disorder

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depression_(mood)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selective_mutism

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Love-shyness

Jeez.  Good thing I'm not in the medical profession, eh?
