R S IR S I
Repetitive strain injury (RSI), also known as Cumulative Trauma Disorder (CTD), occupational overuse syndrome, or work related upper limb disorder (WRULD), is the most recent manifestation of illness concepts that link use of the arm to injury or disease. Prior to typewriters or computers there was the concept of "writer's cramp".
The basis for this illness concept is the idea that one can overuse a tool, such as a computer keyboard or musical instrument in a way that causes tissue damage leading to pain. Conditions such as RSI tend to be associated with both physical and psychosocial stressors.

You never stop being in love with a person you only get repulsed by its habits.
quote of the day:
"I have often asked myself whether, given the choice, I would choose to have manic-depressive illness...Strangely enough, I think I would choose to have it. It's complicated...I honestly believe that as a result of it I have felt more things, more deeply; had more experiences, more intensely...Depressed, I have crawled on my hands and knees in order to get across a room and have done it for month after month. But normal or manic, I have run faster, thought faster, and loved faster than most I know."
The following is a quote by Dr. Kay Jamison, a professor or psychiatry at Johns Hopkins University and a leading expert on bipolar disorder, who, herself has the condition.
