Hi Jay.

> I had things I was doing in therapy to help promote my life and a possible career, but things have been really on hold right now.

Tell me about it. My therapist and I are working on exactly the same things. For now, though, I feel somewhat stuck. I am making progress in these areas, in principal, but not yet in practice. If I feel no worse than I do right now, I might be able to tackle the employment issue. However, I am so comfortable with my routine inside the house, that I don't venture out enough. I also need to let this lithium thing settle in more. I still can't count on stability at any level.

> I can use the computer

I noticed many years ago that, although I could barely feed myself, I was still able to enjoy - or at least distract myself - on the computer. I think it has to do with getting instant reward without much expenditure of mental and physical energies. I presented this observation to the the staff at the NIMH, NIH in 1992. They had already noticed it and were beginning to study it just before I got there.

Let's hope that the both of us become "unstuck" soon.


Be well.


- Scott
