And I guess I always envisioned older people as having achieved a level of contentedness that would gradually reduce or eliminate any mental health problems that they may have had earlier in life. However, for me, it seems like the older I get, the crazier I get! It's embarrassing!
YES YES YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I am 60...
