Karl, a star basketball player, has recently lost interest in playing or talking about basketball. He has persistent feelings of sadness and worries he is not good at anything anymore.

Julio believes he is an alien who has been left behind on Earth by his "pod." He is often difficult to understand, because he speaks frequently in rhyme and makes up his own words.

Brian appears to be a mild-mannered 20-something, but he sometimes believes he is a teenage female named "Suzy" who is a member of a high school dance team. At these times, he dresses in various matching outfits, carries pom-poms, and practices various dance routines. Brian is confused about why he sometimes awakens dressed in strange clothing.

Driving back from a concert, Gerri fell asleep at the wheel and crashed her Jaguar convertible. Her best friend perished in the crash. Ever since, although doctors can find nothing physically wrong, Gerri has been paralyzed in the arm with which she was steering.

Keshona is terrified of speaking in public. Although highly knowledgeable and competent, whenever she has to address a gathering of adults, her heart pounds, and her mouth gets dry.

Tuan has been arrested on numerous occasions for disturbing the peace and for illegally producing and selling alcohol and drugs to minors. Although a number of his clients have died from overdoses, he feels no remorse.

While she was on a visit to the Midwest, Samantha's residence was demolished by a tornado. Ever since, she has been plagued by terrible nightmares and occasional flashbacks.

Don goes through periods when he feels he just can't lose. He goes on gambling sprees, launches new get-rich-quick schemes, and engages in promiscuous behavior. At other times, he feels so down that he can't even get out of bed. Life seems purposeless.

No matter what he is doing, Ikimba always feels a little tense. The apprehension has no apparent cause. Even during weekends and vacations, he experiences constant uneasiness.
