Oh, that sucks about the speeding ticket. I hope you are feeling less stressed about it now - those things just happen sometimes but it's not going to affect you that much in the long run. Are you going to pay it or contest it?

What would you think about going to a therapy support group? It might be something to ask your counselor about. Meeting people who share similar struggles can be pretty rewarding and that seems like a good place to do it. I hope that doesn't sound like what you are hearing from your parents/friends/aunt, though, I take it back if it does!

Re: coping, would one of those weekly pill boxes help keep you on track with the melatonin? It would be an extra reminder not to take too much.

I hope your counselor was able to help you figure out some good coping strategies - the exercise suggestion is a really good one.
