I have designed web sites for years, but I quit (not by choice) because of my OCD issues keeping me off my computer for much of, if not more than, a year. So, I've been trying to get back into it, and while HTML is still pretty familiar to me, I've found that CSS is like Greek almost. It's upsetting me greatly, because originally, it came pretty easy to me, with only a few bumps in the road. Now, it's making me crazy, because things that seem like they should work, don't, and I'm frustrated with how complicated the most simple things to do aren't simple at all.

I liken it to when a person has had a terrible accident, especially a trauma to the head, and has to relearn walking, tying shoes, or things once familiar. It feels so weird, because I used to be good at CSS. Not the best, but I could get done what I needed to get done.

I just needed to get this off my chest. The program I used to use I can't afford anymore, and that made it easier, but now I'm just using a text editor. Sometimes I want to break down in tears.
