She probably chose her words carefully.

@tokyokawasaki: in my experience, constant nagging despite obvious discouragement is often indicative of specific health problems (endocrine dysfunction, toxicity, etc) when associated with anxiety, mild obsessive, compulsive or bipolar behaviors are present. you'll find very few doctors will understand this however.
