Violette, you're right -- partly. Until about ten years ago being a writer / professor gave me the freedom to set my own schedule and I did pretty well, though I habitually missed deadlines, left important tasks unfinished, etc. Finally, it got so bad I could hardly do any creative work at all. The medication of course is not going to fix this instantly, but it seems so far to be giving me the ability to return to doing what I want to do and to focus enough to be able to work steadily for extended periods. Meds are only the door: I still have to walk through.
