I AM A GOLDEN GOD
Well, at the moment anyway - though the case could be made that I am just plain crazy.
As pretty much everyone knows, I got really sick. They even told me I was going to die. It's been a long fight (6 years) but I didn't die, I'm in recovery, and in the final stages of the process.
That's all good, but, part of this stage (and the next) involves withdrawing from medications that have been used to keep my mind 'in check', like benzos.
This is not a problem, as I don't need them anymore, other than the fact that they are about as nasty as heroin to withdraw from. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzodiazepine_withdrawal_syndrome
This had led to a lot of emotional instability (never enough to do anything you need to worry about, board wise or personally) but it has shown up in my posts and my time in chat.
It's been a rough few years, and an even rougher last few months, and it's going to get a bit rougher yet, but it's almost over.
Edited to add: Posting this because I was encourage too
