ode to google

It's really MS this time, I'm sure of it. Even google corroborates my suspicions, and we all know that if google says it's true, it must be. Google validates my fear when everyone else seems to think that "there's absolutely nothing wrong" with me; google believes in me when I say that I think I might be dying. Google knows nothing of hypochondria -- to google, there is only cancer.

No really, you try it. Type in "blurry vision" and "tingling hands and feet" and "leg weakness" and tell me what you find. Now try to convince me that I'm not really going to die this time.

Seriously, google should offer a special diagnosis service for people with anxiety disorder and hypochondria -- where whenever you type a terrifying string of symptoms into the search bar, a page immediately pops up and flashes the words "IT'S ALL IN YOUR HEAD".

I am currently working on a new show for a major cable network. I am looking for "everyday women with everyday problems". These problems can be women who are struggling with empty nest syndrome, Women who can’t seem to find Mr. Right, if they feel anxious all the time, don’t know how to handle being a single parent, struggling with career choices, etc. Through group and individual therapy sessions these women will learn to alter their thinking to improve their lives.

If you or anyone you know living in Southern California who could benefit from this kind of program please email me your: name, age, contact info (PHONE NUMBER) and their story to kzackcasting@gmail.com.
