I don't agree, I do not think the internet makes hypochondriacs out of anybody! Unless you're one in the first place.

The only reason people are on forums like this is because we're hunting down the reasons why we feel like sh*t all the time. Far from hypocondriacs, it's a responsible thing to do instead of sitting around doing nothing and complaining, but never actually doing a thing to find out why....

We wouldn't be on here in the first place anyway. Anytime I feel remotely improved, I leave the house and go and do stuff. Unfortunately it's rare!

No matter what you think, this forum is very small, and I really haven't seen another great place for mercury poisoning. Finding this forum was hard enough, I was browsing a social anxiety forum and after like 3 years someone pointed this site.

I don't mean hypochondriacs in the strictest sense, but there is massive advertisement to make people believe they are sick, and if you see the massive list of supplements everyone has tried here you can see it is a very good business.

I was in no way implying that the people here aren't sick, but with the internet explosion and advertising spam doctors have to deal with many patients with phantom illnesses.
