Thank you, all, for your very kind and supportive comments, which are having a salutary effect on my brainmeats, I can assure you. By way of a further update, let me just say that yes, I probably should have cut that first pill in half, as the unexpected three and a half hour nap I collapsed into shortly after hitting 'send' was no joke. It's a fortunate coincidence that for other health reasons I have recently decreased my overall alcohol consumption, so there was nothing else in my system to further complicate the nap.

As you are well aware both Teresa and I are avid believers in Better Living Through Chemistry, and you have all our sympathy and support. I felt every single beat of this "I'm not sure I have the nerve to go through with this so I'm going to write my way directly to the precipice and now I'm there and" narrative.
