I have always been fond of the saying "The geeks will inherit the Earth." Quirky nerdiness is a virtue, as far as I'm concerned. smile

Silver Heart, I am just stopping by to say hello, and wishing you well on your AD tapering adventure. I'm about 2 weeks into my 25% reduction, and I'm doing OK. I had a few rough days, and I worried if the tapering SSRI roller-coaster was making those days worse, but, all in all, I think that I've been much more resilient of late. I think that I'm going to ask for another dose reduction when I see my doc again in a a couple more weeks.

My thinking also feels really sluggish at times, though I"m not inclined to blame that on my ADs. I think that it is a reflection of the incredible emotional turmoil that we've been through. Just getting through a single day now takes up a huge percentage portion of our intellectual band width. I find it amazing that LBSs still are able to function at all, but we do, and we do it pretty darn well, considering...

I have to get to sleep. I have been doing a bit better on that front lately, but tonight I am plainly falling down in the sleep hygiene department. I'm sitting here, tapping away at my keyboard at 3 am instead of sleeping. Time to fix that little problem...

SH, I hope that you are doing well, and that the numbness starts to clear.

good night!
