Chopin fiddled with doh and ray, showing nervous disorder (12)
I believe the answer is:
hypochondria
'nervous disorder' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are singular nouns.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?
'chopin fiddled with doh and ray' is the wordplay.
'fiddled with' indicates an anagram.
'and' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'doh' put after 'ray' is 'raydoh'.
'chopin' mixed up with 'raydoh' can make 'HYPOCHONDRIA'.
'showing' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for hypochondria that I've seen before include "Imagined ill-health" , "Morbid anxiety about one's health" , "Abnormal health worry" , "Chronic anxiety about one's health" , "Imaginary illness" .)
