If I can say so with humility, that sounds like a description of me. I have had an extremely stressful life, largely because I refused to compromise my intellectual integrity in my search for truth.

Although I have to prop myself up with various medications, I feel extremely positive about my life at present, and look forward to perhaps some of the best years of my life still ahead of me.

Thank you for the encouraging comment.

intrepidlover,

Many of us are on the "fast-track" to Nirvana, and it is a painful track indeed. (You are not the only one going through what you are going through.) They said that getting to Nirvana is the most difficult thing we will ever do. They were right.

Keep burning off those larger-than-normal amounts of bad karma. Hang in there just a little longer. It will be worth it, in the long run.
