I have posted ad nauseum on the MHS forum. About all of this. Just thought/hoped it would be appropriate here. And it does help, a lot. Exercising the demons, big and small, on a daily basis. Even weird stuff, like the fact no one ever showed me how to properly tie a tie, so the rare time I wore one it was usually a tacky clip on. I bought new suits and ties the other day, and found websites with instruction diagrams. I guess I have to be the father to myself that I never had.

For the record, I may have a mental illness, but other than my recent, um, "vacation" I'm fully functional in the real world, hold down a full time job as a paralegal, pay my bills, cut my lawn, that sort of thing. Not a scary psycho like dad, just a guy who went though a rough patch and am picking up the pieces pretty well, actually.
