Answer:

Neurodegenerative disease

Explanation:

   Neurodegenerative Disease is a generic term for a range of diseases that affect neurons in the human brain.  Neurons are the base unit of the nervous system (brain and spinal cord). Normally, neurons do not reproduce or replace themselves, so when they are damaged or die they cannot be replaced. Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's and Huntington's disease are some examples of neurodegenerative diseases.

   They are incurable and debilitating diseases that result in progressive degeneration and / or death of neurons. They cause problems of movement (ataxias) or mental function (dementia).

Archy [21]

Answer:

Lack of friends can be a result of reading signals incorrectly. Many people think other people don't like them, so they don't like them in return and thus it goes on and on and before you know it, you hate that person, before you've even spoken to them. ... Friendship favours the brave.
