How do people become hypocondriacs?!
Question: Part phobia and part attention seeking.
Answers: Part phobia and part attention seeking.
usually a combination of too much time on their hands and access to the internet
People that starve for attention (usually depressed people)are hypocondriacs. So what better way to get someone to feel bad for you, overdramatizing the sniffles....or even hoping that they have something more serious. Imaginary illnesses to gain ones sympathy.

Owners of lonely hearts are more likely to become hypocrondriacs.
Its a neurosis brought on by not enough social interaction that includes a constructive routine at the same time.
That is my observation and opinion.
