    Hehe. But there's a silver lining to it. When I win Lottery, I'll have more room in it for my newly-won "papers with the President's pictures" (provided it's an American lottery).
    Keep walking. Just keep walking.

    I haven't voted because my main symptom, all the way through, has been sleep - the inabilty to fall asleep quickly, the inability to stay asleep, and waking at around 5.30-6am regularly.

    I do feel some anxiety but I have lived with anxiety since I was a teenager so it's nothing new and doesn't bother me during the day.

    Sorry we don't have sleep listed, Junior! That's a biggie, for sure. Wishing you calm, tranquil, relaxation.....

    Thanks Sheila. I have learned to cope so it's ok. Even had a window a few months back where I fell asleep within 20 minutes and slept soundly until about 7am. It was blissful! Even better, it means I know I will regain it once I eventually get off this damn stuff!

    That's exactly what that means. Good for you for seeing that.
