There is a lot to how you perceive something that influences how you will react to what's going on. I was just today thinking about the difference between how both my children were born. There were so similar in the time they happened, how they were late, how the birth was triggered etc. But in the first case we were picked up by an emergency vehicle (there was no emergency, they just told us to do this), so it was dark, with this scary blue light as if somebody is dying, to some hectic in the hospital. And in the second we went very quietly to our appointment, rode the bus on a sunny day, took a relaxing walk outside the hospital as we were waiting etc. When it was done with the first, my wife was pale and shivering, completely out of everything, and with the second she was just exhausted but could still smile and enjoy taking our newborn. And she looked happy. Of course there is the case of the first being more scary because of the unknowns, but you could also make a case that it was so traumatic that it should've ruined the second one. I also fell down on ice once and had a case of whiplash. I got worried as I was reading about the potential long term, especially in the US. And I then switched to the German Wikipedia that said doctors in Germany tell patients to relax for a few days and it will go away, and that long term issues are virtually unknown. You could go on and on really. When you go to a doctor and they have almost no time for you, you will not feel better. Compare that with going in to somebody doing homeopathy. A friend told me they went and got a cup of tea and an hour to talk about their health issues. So the body is obviously complicated.
