Message:		Wow, the relative I am concerned with is also very religious, very likely a virgin (well past age 40), and no longer has any social life. In this case, I think he is probably a virgin because he is probably gay but will not acknowledge it (due to the strong religious beliefs). He has thrown his life away the last few years accumulating more and more mental health and physical issues, with none of the treatments working??? I truly don't think there was any sexual abuse - unless it was in the Catholic church - now that's a thought... But I do think his Muchausen, if that is what it is, is connected to the sexual orientation issue.
