That's good news. Do you know what you need to do next? Start trying to put your problems out of your mind, they're under control, you're feeling better; so get on with living your life and enjoy the times you feel OK. Having your problems listed in your signature will not not help, since you're reminded of them everytime you post, get rid of them and take control, as was said earlier, you do appear to let them define you now.

Think about this, if someone asked you to tell them one very important thing about your life, what would it be? Going by your previous posts, it would be your illnesses. So try to believe that not just the drugs can help, but you can help yourself too, and a good start is to stop focusing on your illness now it's under control, i'm sure the shrink would have told you similar.

You're right. Thinking too much about personal feelings and sensations can drive people to abuse controlled substances because, for example, situational anxieties are normal and are one of the main drivers to accomplish something (to remove that anxiety). Life is also pain itself, so trying to completely remove physical or emotional pain will result in substance abuse. Those drugs are only to improve certain conditions and make life tolerable.

It's just... With this new stimulant (Nuvigil) I became a much better BF3 online player, so...
