Heroic fantasies. A dicey one as future-seeing and planning are a big part of my make-up and my professional "competitive advantage."
I only indulge (a clue) these HFs for the good stuff: rescuing people in straits, delivering a riveting talk, etc. Never the yuck stuff, cleaning up, taxes, returning books to the library. Superheros never filed taxes, tidied up, or ever seemed to even know where the library was except I guess when they had to stand on the top of one for perspective. I have many more examples of HFs than m*nia, so it's not always directly leading to trouble. It's just much fun, though! r __________________ |

like with those new, larger, video previewing popup ads at the bottom of my screen on SFs that block my message box.
What I need, I decided, is a back-up personality to default to when that first irritable feeling flares. Now, what might it be? Never found this site till this search. I could think of a living or fictional person to be my interim "performance" role, like I'm an actor in the drama of living. I might turn witty: Oscar Wilde, Mark Twain. Or quoty: Rodney Dangerfield (I get no respect), Freddie Prince (that's not my job). Or withdrawing (Melville's Battleby). Revu2 __________________ |

For me, its got to be sleep, or lack thereof, maybe 3 hours, is the biggest red flag. I have to say though that medicated me hasn't experienced anything interesting in a couple years. I wonder how much of that horrible time will remain in my memory, already family recalls my events with clarity and all I can say is "hummmm" and apologize for the distress I caused.
Of course other features arise, like overly self important, projects galore, erratic work production, jumbled racing thoughts; but the sleep is so easily quantifiable. __________________ BD 1; Abilify, Wellbutrin |
