Yeah, maybe so ... but, I gotta tell you: if I ever have a heart attack,
I most certainly won't be logging in to this place to announce it! :crazy:

Take care man. I hope everything is ok.

The sheer Chula-ness of this post is kind of comforting. Hope all is well.

EMT: Sir, I need to take your pulse, can you please put your phone away?

Chula: **** off, bro.

EMT: Is it Frownland again?

Chula: You know me too well, doc.

EMT: Carry on.

All's good. Mostly. Just a major stress attack. Was talking with my doctor neighbor this AM and he was telling me that heavy duty amounts of stress can manifest physically in a number of ways including both the fugue I had a couple of weeks ago and the feeling like an elephant was sitting on my chest like yesterday.

Just remember, it's only the internet. Frownland can't actually hurt you.

:c
So like a panic attack? Klonopin is great for those (even when it's solely physical symptoms)-- far better than Xanax, in my opinion.

Gotta get those arteries checked and de-stress without drugs.
Fugues aren't generally known to produce stress -
especially those by Bach or Mozart.
"Die Meistersinger von Nurnberg" on the other hand...

I'm already taking zoloft. It's just ridiculously overwhelming at times trying to come to grips with what's happened the past couple of years.

In September of 2014 Linda and I were both working at great jobs with my company pulling down over $150K a year with full paid benefits.

As of now my salary has been cut in half and all Linda can find is part time working retail for minimum wage and zero benefits - so we're having to shell out $500 a month for ACA coverage.

We're struggling likes crazy trying to figure out how not to lose our house that we've been living in for the past 20 years.

That sucks man. I've had a lot overwhelming personal shit over the past few years as well and all I can say is just try to remember to think about the good things you have in your life and just stay confident that you'll make it through this.
