James Boswell is wondering...

ARE YOU A HYPOCHONDRIACK?

A Hypochondriack, as Boswell knows full well since he is a confessed hypo, is a person who is unusually moody, with perhaps some mental problems, some melancholic tendencies. Overall they are someone who is a grumpy louse. Are you one of these? Probably, but to empirically figure it out...

answer the following questions:

• Do you enjoy thinking

• Do you think about various important issues like: drinking, death, marriage?

• Do you feel sad about nothing imparticular at least five times a day?

• Do you often burst out crying for no reason?

• Do you drink or indulge in other sinful behavior in order to escape this sadness?

• Is your favorite color blue?

• Is everyone against you?

• Do you feel down more than you feel up?

• Are people sick of giving you money?

• Are you a worthless, useless piece of trash?

• Do you like to write long essays about various important issues (see above)?

• Is life hard?

• Are you a Capricorn or Virgo?

• Is life pointless?

• Are you depressed?
