I agree that the caring and concern that I pay for is nice. I have great insurance, so I can afford all of the concern. I just wish I could pass on this wonderful bedside manner I get to some of my friends here who could really use it. There are real problems here of losing jobs, ineffective treatment, dealing with family, etc. Meanwhile, I am reaping benefits I don't need. I can live without sleep. I know there is a light at the end of the tunnel once I get through these first few months of my job. I can deal with my son who is now "forgetting" to take his meds occasionally. I can be depressed, but still get through it all. I am strong with what I am dealing with because I know that I have friends here who are much stronger than me and dealing with much more.
Btw, as for meds, Blue, I don't get much for lack of sleep because I have addictive behaviors.
