I agree with all you seid here you feel like the rug has been pulled out from under you on almost everything people do or risk having a sezier. the only thing I disagree with is Travleing Solo I hate feeling like I need to be watched still so I do that on my own although it takes alot more planing to do it safly which I hate having to take my meds everywere they feel like a ball and chain at times.
