Thank you for your service!

I am a veteran as well, so I know it can be difficult to go from an achiever to dropping classes and being on SS.

It is excellent that you have realized a pattern in your symptoms. If you have VA healthcare (or other healthcare), I suggest you partner with a doc that can tailor a medication plan to help you with the anticipated changes.

No one is super consistent, don't beat yourself up!

I feel awful about myself because I can never be consistent. Can anyone relate?
