Mark,

Fascinating article.

My worry about some of the meds is it can be a crap shoot as to whether it works for you or makes you worse. I just don't want the gamble. I am thankful that I am well enough despite all the stuff to have a choice, others are much worse than I and need all the help they can get. I don't know if I am being naive or not.

My routine for sleep starts when I wake up. I work real hard at dispelling worry and any thoughts that do not pertain to what has to be done today and planning for tomorrow. That is a difficult vital chore.

My biggest weapon is the scripture. They are my brain break during the day and the last thing I read before lights out. Really helps me get my focus and gives me something to ponder.
