I've been on a steady regimen for over a year. I feel it's helping. I can function better now, like reading/studying, engaging in purposeful behavior, etc. Maybe it's a matter of finding my "niche".

I remember a time when I felt like I was being controlled, couldn't direct my thought process, couldn't do anything, really. And it was more of a matter of internal sentiment. What I have noticed is that I tend to make progress that no one else recognizes. Like I am kind of in a cocoon, making needed changes, all the while appearing to be doing nothing by everything around.
