Yeah, I take that too. Along with my clonazepam for the last 17 years.

Executive function is the worst for me. So when I work, I work alone.

Light: Family knows to warn me before turning on a bright light. If they forget, they remember rather quickly. Nobody wants to see my inner beast...including me.

Bottom line: I take my meds, place myself in a controlled environment as much as possible, save my strength for the unexpected.

Time and middle age is teaching me patience. When there is some kinda uproar going on, I know it will pass and I can return to my quiet ground, resume breathing normally, and regroup for the next round.
