Perhaps I'm simply missing something, but I don't see anything in the game about what status effects do and the only one the manual seems to explain is irradiated (glowing) because it mentions the effect of walking through radioactive wasteland. For those who haven't seen that, it can prevent healing to full when resting.

I know that hiccuping can cause you to waste your attack, but what about paranoid and itchy?

Also wastes moves. So many waste move ailments.

... Do they mention how many of them clear up on their own? The clearing up is on random before you get your hopes up about resting through them.
