Brain Lady seems to have figured out a regimen for the neurofeedback that does not cause me to veer between flailing depressive self-hatred and near-paranoiac rage. This is a good thing.

I'm also experiencing a more even temperament generally. The same problems are there, but the amplitude is reduced, as are the swings. In simpler terms: I'm still upset about a lot of things and have some pessimistic opinions, but I'm no longer staring at the wall thinking about them for 9 hours straight.

I'm also sleeping between 12 and 14 hours a night, which is both therapeutically deemed to be "good" and pleasurable.

So far my rating for neurofeedback as a therapy is a conditional positive. I've got improvements that are good and important, but getting there was disagreeable in the extreme.

That is so cool! I'm happy that things are looking up for you. Or less down, if you prefer.

Best news ever! you must have a very strong cup of coffee to wake up after 14 hours of sleep!

12 to 14! Luxe! Enjoy it.

I like the "conditional positive," like a conditional pass. "Treatment has achieved goals, but should work on the delivery."

Here's to less bad delivery and more achievement of goals.

Wow, I get told that getting that many hours of sleep a night is unhealthy, maybe it's due to my age, but I have a hard time functioning these days on less than 10-12 hours of sleep.

I'm jealous!
