Both my mental stamina and my physical stamina has been low for years though, and it is really like having a physical handicap I think.

MI definitely has a physical component. It is an all-encompassing brain disorder. By definition, the whole of brain function is compromised. I see this post as a healthy approach to our sad state of affairs and yeah, I even get hopeful sometimes that I make a difference in someone's life. Maybe even get comfortable enough with some that I open the door to my world.
This may not make any sense. I'm plain old ****ed up and hanging in there in spite of it.
