Thank you, ibby. My wife is an HSP (highly sensitive person) so I know well what he describes. I have, also, over the years noted many similarities between she and I. There is almost certainly a connection between PD and the basket that I think of as the "Modern Malaise". Things like autism and its attached spectrum, Asperger's, schizophrenia, CFS, etc. PD fits right in all too often.
