I know how you feel...
I just had to do the "Flatworm" thing....
It was like "Flatworms...ME...??...No Way...."
Kinda makes you feel like a social outcast for awhile with some kind of unmentionable disease....
Then you find out sooner or later everybody goes through it....and your not alone...
I found it helps to think of them as an "alien species" attacking my world and then NUKE the little BA$TARDS into oblivion...
Bwahh...Haa...Haa...
Brings back good feelings of self worth, control, and accomplishment..
