A deep description of a critical moment of recognition -- I've never read anything like it!

This made me think back; years ago we used to have a saying, I think. Strangely, it may have had something to do with tennis player Goran Ivanišević? Something about being the best and the worst of times (see also Dickens, of course) ... So maybe the seeds were there long ago? Anyway, I am here for all the times, all the ways (and always). Keep writing -

Oh I remember. He was the best and the worst. And somehow saying Ivanisevic (Look at your fancy version) made things that much more meaningful! Love you so.

This is a very special post about a difficult and life-altering encounter with your doctor. But since you mentioned it, how were you able to resist aligning the frames on the wall... either before or after the doctor dropped the bi-polar news on you?

Every f'ing time I had to resist. The worst.

I have experience with both of those drugs. I’d love to hear your story. I have a questionnaire or you could write it essay style. No idea how to DM you. Do you have the technological skills to make this one on one so we don’t publicly share contact info?
