Now they overwhelm me. Although my depression is in large degree improved, reading, learning, and remembering are still badly impaired, presumably from years of excessive cortisol exposure and atrophy.

> - ScottI am astounded by your description of how you are feeling. It is as if you were talking about me. Except I never comprehended the amount you seemed to have but then I never tried to learn it at an earlier time when I probably could have focused, learned and most importantly remembered as I learned so I could build upon what I already new. I learn something today and go back to it tomorrow and cannot remember it yet not build upon it. Undopameric's description of taking a shower was revealing for me. Except first I have to motivate to even take the shower.
I just thought with all the knowledge you have accumulated that this was your belief system. I guess not enough people have tried it to report enough if it actually pans out. I thought that when you make recommendation that you sometimes refer to it. I dont even understand it enough to remark intelligently.
