now this poses an interesting question ... let's say this particular ailment befalls you. do you suffer in quiet agony, making sure no one knows it's happening ... or do you seek treatment, knowing the odds are good you are likely to become known as "fly boy" and have your story and predicament plastered all over the international news?

"he told his parents, but they didn't initially believe him." how exactly do you explain this to your folks? "mom, dad, gee, the oddest thing has been happening to me lately ... i know you said i'd be going through some ... changes ... around this age, but i didn't think you meant THIS!!!"

comment with your take on it ... i'm intrigued.
