-no words like be, been, being, was, it, or you
-due in 2 weeks from the given date
Extreme cases of these reports include nausea, bleeding through the fingernails and elbows, unconrtollably checking the time and date, anxiety attacks, hyperactivity, red eyes, loss of sleep, inability to stop your fingers miming the typing motion, slight moaning, and sometimes even death.
