Anorexics aren't Bulimics in the sense that they're obsessed with being thin, but they don't binge and purge. That seems pretty general, and non-descr...

Point was that neuroticism is a fundamental personality trait, and there are problems with its excess and deficit, like there are with all of the othe...

I do actually hope that you'll elaborate though. I've been primed to avoid feeling and expressing being insulted now, so do your worst.
