Default "D" Issues

Time to start discussing all the other issues in the alphabet. Can you help me identify all possible family, friend, society, afflictions, social issues, etc., that begin with the letter D? Eventually, all of these issues will either become main categories or sub-categories with issues under them, depending on how generic the term is.

Some that come to mind for me are:
  • Deafness
  • Diet
  • Drugs
  • Depression
  • Delirium
  • Diahorria
  • Down Syndrome
  • Dry Mouth
  • Disorders (Bi-Polar and such should be below)
  • Dreams
  • Dysfunction
  • Dread
  • Diverticulitis
  • Dementia
  • Despair (eye kant speyl)
  • Death
  • Dissociation
  • Dysphoria
  • Divorce
  • Dyslexia

Does not seem I can edit the original post. I assume it is for the Wiki only.

Dismenorea (sp?) - why are you including physical ailments? Will you link to a health advice directory or something?

Despair is mis-spelt, Duke

We've been adding physical and psychological ailments alike since the letter A actually, do you not think we should?

As it stands, I'm sure we have a lot of content that we may or may not decide to publish when the time comes. Now we have to break down each and every listed item/letter and discuss that particular ailment. At this time it will become increasingly obvious:

- is it a category, sub-category or topic?
- should it be included?
- does it link to other categories, sub-categories or topics?

We've still got a very long road ahead of us and we all have input on how the final resource ends up. Right now we're merely laying the ground work for the future resource and may actually start adding to the Wiki in as little as a month or so. For now though, lets just list things that affect our daily lives (without going overboard) and sort them out later.

I think anxiety is the worst. Need to see if that is in the A topic.
