Blogging would be like anything else someone obsesses over to the point of not sleeping or eating right or exercising..I guess the only news here is that it DOES get added to the list. If you are a reporter, doctor, lawyer, whatever, (and now blogger too) and you run yourself down and have a known or unknown medical issue then it can happen. One point that struck me as I read it last night was the immediacy of 'news' on line and how much more available information is and does that make bloggers extra obsessive and unable to sleep? I would say, this man died AND he was a blogger, not this man died because he was a blogger. A friend sent me the NYTs article last night.

You do not have to answer that question. ;) Beyond, I'll keep my inner-mom in check, for now. :) Seriously, do you think the stress is brought on by blogging, or by your expectations for yourself and those that you feel others have for you?
