I'd tend to agree with that, but I also must admit that when my first out-of-nowhere major depression hit -- along with my first ideation-- that I found myself pondering that route.

But while I pondered, I was living on chocolate donuts and ended up gaining quite a bit of weight, lol.

I'll chime in with mindwrenches' difficulties. I have something like that too, some times more than others, but it's very frustrating. Gathering things together --grab one thing, get sidetracked, forget, drop, bumble, just had but can't find etc. till I (sometimes) just lose it.
