My disorder most annoying (to me, at least) on these threads has been speaking out of originating thread order on past threads. Points questioned were separated from points answered big time. Being too terse was no good, rebound embellishment was worse. Consolidating several answers in a single post generated a ton of wrath.
My self-assessments are in last month's archive as I bragged about how much better I had become. This "forum's" assessments differ substantially. I think 'awake' "is" MUCH better than sedated zombiness. The more awake after all that, the better to me.
Simply: I can't yet sleep without medication after several years. I am using a medication combination that has no hangover. I apparently write in ways that are especially annoying when the medication is in it's first and last half-hour. My self-confidence was destroyed by several years of hopeless helplessness that I am mow rebuilding with great caution and conservativism and many back-up plans. It would take too long and not be worth it to go back to what and where I was (ha, either place). There is a lot I can now do if I can just maintain. I wish myself a lot of luck and am sticking my foot in luck's door to prove it. I don't want that door slamming me in the face again.
