 === Guinea Pig Disease ===
-'''Guinea Pig Disease''' is introduced in ''[[Livin' Large]]''. Sims can catch it if they are bitten by a guinea pig that has a dirty cage, or from other Sims who have been infected with the disease. Objects cloned from the guinea pig can also cause this disease. Sims infected with Guinea Pig Disease will sneeze and cough frequently, and their Comfort and Energy motives will rapidly decline. An infected Sim will die if not treated within time.

 Due to a glitch, a Sim who dies from Guinea Pig Disease cannot be successfully resurrected by the Grim Reaper. Once they are restored to life they will immediately die again.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ebMjT1D5Nyw The Sims 1- Guinea Pig Disease Glitch] on YouTube.</ref>

 === Montezuma's Revenge ===
-'''Montezuma's Revenge''', also known as "'''Poopy Pants'''" (the name used by Maxis in the code), is a disease introduced in ''[[Vacation]]''. It's a form of food poisoning, and Sims can get it from eating at [[buffet table]]s when their [[Hygiene]] is low. Montezuma's Revenge cannot kill a Sim, but will cause great discomfort to the ill Sim as the [[Bladder]] motive will rapidly decline, making them spend plenty of time in the bathroom. The disease is not deadly, and will go away on its own after a period of time.

 === "Mystery Illness" ===
-Reportedly introduced in ''[[Unleashed]]'', this was dubbed the "Mystery Illness" because its exact nature and origin was unknown. Its existence was inferred, but never officially acknowledged or confirmed, and reports of it spread around the Sims community. Reported symptoms are those of the Guinea Pig Disease, but it does not require the presence of a guinea pig. It could reportedly affect both humans and pets, and reported symptoms in pets include listlessness and an inability to maintain the Hunger motive.

It could reportedly affect both humans and pets, and reported symptoms in pets include listlessness and an inability to maintain the Hunger motive.
 It does not appear to exist as a separate entity, but may have been the result of a bug involving existing illnesses. What it is, and whether it exists at all, remains subject to dispute. Investigations have shown that there is no reference to disease in any of the files that come with ''Unleashed'' (see [http://simblesseoblige.com/viewtopic.php?t=5645 this thread] at Simblesse Oblige), and that code which claims to cure the disease refers to a disease controller file which was included in ''Vacation'', which actually contains code for Poopy Pants.
 === Nervous Breakdown ===
-'''Nervous Breakdowns''' are introduced in ''[[Superstar]]''. If a famous Sim has repeated failures in [[Studio Town]] the Sim will enter a catatonic state and lose [[Comfort]], [[Fun]], [[Bladder]] and potentially [[Fame (career)|star power]]. Subsequently, the Sim's breakdown will be reported in the tabloid.<ref>http://simblesseoblige.com/viewtopic.php?t=8834</ref>

 The best cure for all illnesses is rest. Sick Sims should be kept away from healthy Sims, and should not be standing for too long. Their comfort and energy can be kept high by making them sleep and relax on a bed, until a message appears saying they are cured. [[Secret skills#The Sims 2|Meditation]] can be used to freeze these motives in order to keep them high.
-Sims can make medicine with the [[Career rewards#SimSanto Inc. Biotech Station|biotech station]] which will reduce the duration of an illness. The medicine does not work correctly without ''[[FreeTime]]'' or ''[[Apartment Life]]'' however. A mod from [http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php?topic=5624.0 More Awesome Than You!] can be used to make the medicine to work properly in games without these expansions installed.

 If ''[[The Sims 2: Seasons|Seasons]]'' is installed, drinking [[Juices|orange juice]] made from Tasty or Mouthwatering fruit can cure colds, or at least reduce the duration of the illness.
-If ''[[The Sims 2: FreeTime|FreeTime]]'' is installed, Sims with [[Family (aspiration)|Family]] as their primary or secondary [[Aspiration (The Sims 2)|aspiration]] can purchase the [[aspiration benefit]] '''Grandma's Comfort Soup''', which allows them to cook a special soup regardless of their [[Cooking#The Sims 2|cooking]] skill. When eaten by a Sim, this soup will cure any disease they have. If ''[[The Sims 2: Open For Business]]'' is also installed, Grandma's Comfort Soup can be added to the menu in an [[Restaurant#Business|owned restaurant]] regardless of possessing the benefit or not, which will cure any customers that are ill.
