I think this is a great idea, bpcyclist. What do you think, whatever? In reading your posts, your mood so often seems very tied in to whether you are winning or not in scrabble. I can't help but think a non-competitive endeavor would be good for you. More enjoyable.

If I may ask (and you don't have to answer, obviously), if you have a T, have you guys worked with perfectionistic tendencies and how badly you deal with losing? It's obviously an issue for you, and it can't be fun to let a game throw you around so.

One of the things that's a real standout in what bpcyclist writes about his experience is that he didn't think he could do it. And maybe that's what you're thinking right now. The best approach, in my experience anyway, is to set perfectionism aside and consider it PLAY. Like a kid.

For art, if you don't know where to start, may I suggest collage? It very much lends itself to play.
