I think the worst is over for tonight. Whewwww! That was a bad one. I actually experienced confusion, despair, disorientation, diminished concentration, and anxiety all rolled up into one convoluted emotion that was pretty damn powerful. But now feel even-keeled and coherent again, at least as much as can be expected from a sodden Irishman. The Beast has gone so I think I'm going to watch a movie then turn in. Thanks to all of you pulling me out of the crazies. I hope I can reciprocate sometime.
Peace—
