Anyone have trouble with psychological dermatitis?

Bones - my issue was strep throat that was serious enough and led to me having permanent high levels of Epstein Barr virus.  (I get tested 2x per year to control it!)

Heart - also, for sure skin is a boundary issue!

You are both right on!

Thanks, Ales2.

For myself, I had FREQUENT bouts of laryngitis as well as bronchitis.

Bones, I still sing some ... classical music just wasn't my passion though. I fit much better with a career in psychology. But the joy that I felt and feel when singing is still there ... and I wonder if the joy of using my voice kept me going through a degree program that overall wasn't a good fit. I have always loved choral singing ... I love MAKING classical music, but don't get nearly as much enjoyment out of attending other people's performances.  We might be on to something here ... because I just couldn't make a career out of classical music, it wasn't my passion, but using my voice WAS my passion. I guess the need (to sing a lot) diminished as I grew an adult life of my own.

I think using our voices is a form of FREEDOM!!!!!
