[QUOTE="Katz314, post: 177438, member: 5627"] I wouldn't worry I lost my marbles years ago and it didn't bother me all that much. I had more fun being crazy than I ever had sane. If you are crazy then you have nothing to worry about. You only have to avoid the men in white coats with the nets. most people are too self-involved to notice that you are going crazy and lots of people are crazier than both of us so at least you won't be lonely. Since everyone living is a little bit crazy and some of them don't know it. Anyone whose willing to admit they may be losing their marbles you know they still have a few of them.:) Think on this I didn't lose my marbles I just forgot where I put them I used to have a handle on life but the handle broke Whatever you are dealing with a sense of humor about it usually helps. If your kid is driving you crazy then maybe you can find out if the school he attends has a catagory of most likely to get arrested for a serious crime. Or you can list as one of your job skills used to working with crazy people. I have post traumatic too snd instead of stressing over it I make fun of the whole thing and do not take the whole thing seriously.
