Joey:

Well, I think so too. Yet Steve's explanation as to how the effect can vary *for the victim* based on the victim's personailty, mindset does make sense to me. 

I suppose it's like no two individuals suffering from the same disease can have *exactly the same* experience even though the disease, its intensity & symptoms could be just the same.
