Although Paul is not wrong that there can be psychological responses to
perceived exposure in the absence of true exposure (or for that matter
in the presence of true exposure), it would be dangerous to believe that
that is the only response. Many volatile organics are neurotoxicants
that can cause acute or chronic (or sometimes both) effects on the
nervous system. Others are indeed carcinogenic.
