Interesting...you may be right. Does Cushing's Syndrome also present with mental illness or mental retardation? ...or even cognitive decline? First time I've heard of this condition, but now that I've seen other images of it on Google, I realize I see people like this all around me. I've always attributed it to poor diet and lack of dieting discipline and no exercise.... but maybe it's Cushing's Syndrome.

Mental illness also seems to affect people who write about Cushing's Syndrome.
My dad was diagnosed with cushing's in the 70s. It was really rare then. He was one of six or seven patients and the only male across the US that his endocrinologist was treating. He developed it while in Vietnam so I tend to suspect it was AO or other pesticides and chemicals being used then. Today it is much, much more common. Again i think chemicals (food additives and enviromental) are causing havoc. I was very young when my dad had it (corrected by surgery) so I don't remember any odd behavior nor do I recall any talk of it. That woman is beyond erratic and bizarre. I would be very, very surprised to find out drugs weren't involved as well.
