If we read or hear about a illness chances are we will feel the symptoms

Thanks for that! Really interesting and true. I can't remember what exactly it's called but it's common for medical students (and psychology students) to experience symptoms of the conditions they're learning about.
I do it to myself, I consider myself lucky that I can recognise it now because that part is really difficult. I don't know if you're a fan of the show 'Frasier' (I LOVE it) �� But I always remember one of his callers being a student of psychiatry, looking for help as he is reeling off a list of symptoms he has been studying, Frasier tells him it's normal in medical school... I think of that a lot!
