Iā€™m also a nonce now.

That means Iā€™m a 12 year old nonce which in effect probably means Iā€™m a sexually active 12 year old.

Which flies in the face of the fact Iā€™m an asexual.

Itā€™s terribly confusing, Kev has the answers to all of lifeā€™s issues but is struggling with the conundrum that is @Nembo_Kid.

@caoimhaoin Iā€™m off to bed so researched it myself (ironically because i didnā€™t want to be STRESSING) and found this from the good folk at the National Cancer Institute.

"Although stress can cause a number of physical health problems, the evidence that it can cause cancer is weak. Some studies have indicated a link between various psychological factors and an increased risk of developing cancer, but others have not.

Apparent links between psychological stress and cancer could arise in several ways. For example, people under stress may develop certain behaviors, such as smoking, overeating, or drinking alcohol, which increase a personā€™s risk for cancer. Or someone who has a relative with cancer may have a higher risk for cancer because of a shared inherited risk factor, not because of the stress induced by the family memberā€™s diagnosis."

Exactly, stress causes cancer.

Stress doesnā€™t cause cancer, people do.

Because god hates them.

See CMā€™s post.

Its often internal. Of course there are forms of cancer brought on by environment, smoking, inhalation of A-B-C and all that. But stress is the biggest common demoninator. That will be internal and/or external stress.

  1. That contradicts itself and admits stress does cause cancer
  2. It still puts cancer in one large box, when its far more complicated than that.
  3. Its a National agency. Generally way off the bat. The fitness and health agencies around the world still tell people the stupidest shit. They are generallt way behind and also being given their dire tion hy big business.

And thwy commit suicide as well.

Apparently excess sugar is bad for you now, according to all the health experts in Ireland that is.

That is simply not true. There is No evidence scientific or otherwise that a persons mood affects their risk of getting cancer.

So you know more than a department set up with a sole focus on cancer.

Kev, there is no scientific evidence that stress causes cancer.
You are working from anecdotal evidence provide by @ChocolateMice :grin: and your doctor friends. But there is no evidence, and therefor what you are arguing is incorrect.

Weā€™ve established this,beyond any doubt.

Doctors and the people they deal with donā€™t matter?

You feel tge need for someone to do a study, bot always done in a correct and responsible way, o er what professionals see every day. There is plenty evidence. You just donā€™t want to see it.

The google search brings up the exact same spiel from several different governments and cancer charities etc saying evidence is weak. And if they say its weak then you can be sure its plentiful.

But even the link says there is evidence.
