What exactly does "The data source comes from the New York Times" mean? Where's the citation? 150.188.13.25

This article has some redundant "symptoms".

I was a summer camp counselor before. We were told to refer to homesickness as 'sapitis', so no campers would know what we were talking about. Is this in fact the real medical term or is it something made up?--Theloniouszen 22:57, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

"Capitis" is a term for ringworm of the scalp. It's the species name, in the bi-nomial scientific name. 79.183.238.88 (talk) 19:06, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Hello

I was once at my parents' summer home. Instead of missing home, I was missing it more there when I was going home, because I had fallen in love. I did not want to leave the summer destination, because it was several miles away from where I lived, and I was afraid to leave the one I loved.

While I was there, I had begun to experience crying fits, denial, and I spent most of my time staying indoors and crying alone in the bedroom. Does anyone know what it's called when you miss the place you left for, rather than home? User:Ladypulaski 12:15PM 25 May 2007.

LP, that's called Lust. --Onondagan opossum 22:32, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
