DSM XV? Skipped quite a number of editions there.

That is not a normal thing. There may be hope for the author, yet.

Oh God no! I'm normal. Is there any help or hope for me? What do I do now? What should I do? You who believe in prayer can maybe say a prayer for me. Personnaly I don't but, whatever turns your crank. In the meantime I will find a quiet corner to hide in.
