The question is why though? Are we just smart enough to understand our existence and its insignificance? Or just dumb enough to not be able to comprehend the forces outside our perception?
No, malingering is deliberately faking symptoms to an illness for other gains such as financial, empathetic, or prescription medicine, such as faking ADHD because you want to crush up and snort your Ritalin, or faking illness for financial compensation (e.g. I take sick leave, get paid, but I'm not really sick, just don't want to work; you gave me herpes without telling me you had it and I am going to sue, or something like that).
