 * We all know how hypochondriacs think and behave–a mortal illness embedded in every meal and a fatal prognosis in every sensation–but how would a hyperchondriac think and behave? ¶ Just imagine the difference. Where the hypochondriac sees only threats and degeneration, the hyperchondriac sees only benefits and potential pleasures. Where the hypochondriac sees only danger, the hyperchondriac sees only opportunity. Thy hypochondriac is a psychosomatic pessimist, but the hyperchondriac is a psychosomatic optimist.
