The meds shift isn't possible. I am on HUGE night meds mix and even that doesn't always work. I was a blackout drinker from 14 to 32 and my psychiatrist has explained to me that like people who abused prescription or street drugs (which I didn't), my alcoholic drinking has changed my brain and thus I have a very high tolerance for different types of drugs eg. Benzos, of which Valium is One. I use a lot less Valium than the psyhologist and psychiatrist would prefer me to have, but I am terrified of getting addicted (no sign of that and I've had it my meds mix for a few years), and I don't wat to reduce its efficacy - I need that PRN buffer for times like this.

I'm going to explore whether I can defer the Uni course and still be able to handle the complex financial things involved.
