I have a good p-doc and a good T. I don't get to see them as often as needed due to increase in deductible (from $350 to $500) and a huge financial setback that I am still not over yet.
But equally as important (possibly more importantly?) I am completely aware of my ways and I know how things affect me and how I affect things. I know when I am getting down and I know how to recognize the difference between excitement and mania. I am in tune with my emotions (well, better now anyway) and I have been getting the rest I need. There is apparently some correlation between how much sleep I need and how level I am in my emotions. Less sleep, spike in irrational thoughts/actions, more sleep, more rational thoughts/actions. I kno w for some that may be a big fat DUH but for me I have always worked so much and been so over-active that I didn't realize how it was affecting me.
