SPEAKS OUT ON THE DANGERS OF
POST REUNION WITHDRAWAL SYNDROME (PRWS)
Is there such a thing as reunion addiction?
Possible signs of the condition:
1. You wake up craving email and blog from a classmate?
2. You turn on the computer before your morning coffee and shower?
3. You get defensive if somebody wonders why you are carrying an old yearbook with you? (it takes a while to read all those things people wrote in the margins)
4. You would rather turn on the computer than the TV?
5. You forget to make dinner because you were going through a box of old photos?
6. You feel like no one understands you (just because their reunions were lame...)
7. You feel compelled to learn to dance the "Freddy" once again.
8. You say you can stop talking about it and thinking about it any time, but you were really happy that Monique said "out loud" that she would work on the 45th!
IF YOU ARE EXPERIENCING ANY OF THESE SYMPTOMS, PLEASE CONTACT THE SUPPORT GROUPS WHICH ARE FORMING IN YOUR LOCAL AREA.
