As surprising as it may sound, to admit that you spend a lot of time doing any of the above is in your favor when applying for disability benefits. This is mostly true due to a disabled person's limited ability to engage in many common (and often taken for granted) physical activities.
Well said sir!!

Agreed, and all absolutely true. And that being said, though off-topic but with topic because of ctnbeh13's comment, lol, I like South Park, and not just because of the comedy, but because of the social commentary. If you stop and watch and really pay attention, you can actually learn a lot about what's going on in the world and it helps alleviate the stress of it by making fun of it. There is so much seriousness that comes with what goes on in the world today, especially for people with disabilities, that South Park helps us laugh at what goes on.

IMO, the most important thing in life is to learn to laugh at themselves....

That's pretty easy to pull off, just stay up for about a full day. You'll eventually become your own best friend. :)

Lol, at 2-3 days, you start having conversations with your hallucinations...

I had a good system going for a while putting my hallucinations to work for me, assigning them tasks, and such. After a while, I started to question the accuracy of the notes I asked one to keep, and basically just had to terminate his employment. It seemed that every time I went to take a nap and got back up, they took advantage of this situation and left work early. Now that I think about it more, I can't really remember if I let them go because I couldn't count on them, or couldn't count them.
