sausage aversion

Someone who really, REALLY hates ACTUAL sausage. For some, it's all things Italian sausage that can trigger this response. Rosemary, Fennel and Caraway Seeds are polar opposites on the taste spectrum from cupcakes, tea and pretty much anything heavenly sweet for someone suffering from sausage aversion. Sausage aversion has been known to cause severe moments of distress when placed in the precarious position of picking pizza toppings for others.
Jerod: Wanna order a pizza?
Michelle: Let's get pineapple on it.
Angela: I'm game for anything except italian sausage. I just don't have it in me to try it tonight. Sorry, Dominic.
Dominic: Your sausage aversion makes me sad.

‘Aspergineering’ is a term coined to describe a branch of thinking associated with people who have Aspergers Syndrome (AS). People with AS often have a unique ability to go beyond the concept of "thinking outside of the box".
In fact, in Aspergineering terms, there simply is no box!
Einstein's theory of relativity is an example of aspergineering.

Work Aversion Disorder

A psychiatric medical condition in which a person is repulsed by working or being employed. As a result, s/he makes excuses to avoid working for a living.

One with Work Aversion Disorder (WAD) may appear to be lazy, immature, irresponsible, or to have a poor work ethic, but that is not the case. S/he is actually psychologically unable to seek or perform employment. Most of these people are able to do work-like activities outside of the context of employment.

Work Aversion Disorder is caused by various mental illnesses, including anxiety disorder (like agoraphobia or panic disorders), depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, or post-traumatic stress disorder.

People with Work Aversion Disorder usually do not admit they have work aversion, but make excuses not to work, such as physical illness, external obstacles, religious beliefs, or non-paying obligations in their lives, and often turn to extreme measures to obtain money needed such as draining savings, getting into debt, looking for easy money, begging, gambling, or in the worst cases, illegal activity.

It is common for people with Work Aversion Disorder to lose friends, marriages to dissolve, and family members to disown victims.

It is estimated that about 1-2% of the population worldwide has Work Aversion Disorder. The rate is equal in all countries, races, cultures, and genders, though it only has been recognized as a disorder since the 1980s, in most cases, it goes unnoticed.
My son has Work Aversion Disorder. He once had a full-time job and was fully self-supporting, but now he doesn't work at all. He is behind on all his bills, his house is in foreclosure, and his car was recently repossessed.

At first, I was telling him to go out and get a job. I then realized that would not solve the problem. He really needs help. He has an illness, and he needs to be treated.

work aversion

The state of being turned off by working or being employed.

People with work aversion (or aversion to work) generally try to get by on as little effort as possible or avoid work altogether, or if employed, put a minimal effort into the work.

Those with work aversion in need of money often turn to drastic measures to try to get money, such as looking for effortless income or easy money, exhausting their savings and credit, getting into debt, begging, or even worse, unethical or illegal activity.

People with work aversion are not necessarily lazy and do not always lack a work ethic in their heart, but simply have a psychological difficulty in working.
My son has work aversion; he cannot push himself to go out and get a job.
