Who are those others and why do you think they are different from you?
what kind of psychological help and how does it alleviate their symptoms?
How do you differentiate between a patient with a "real" illness (even cancer) who does better with emotional support and a patient with a "non-real" illness who does better with emotional support?

How exactly do you rule out everything?
