Emotions have a correlation with the body. I've had so many symptoms of chronic illness for years as my mental health worsened. My body acts like it's under constant attack. My life is a total wreck but I take the constant extra step to be that health freak cause I have to, I cant enjoy the same things as stable people cause my body can fall into an illness as fast as my emotions can split.  I'm perceived as spoiled, narcissistic, and dramatic all the time.
