3. The 3 a.m. niggling, crazy voices?
Menopause! (a friend says she calls them the "night wolves" because of how they howl....)
4. My depression?
Menopause!
5. The lethargy? Feeling down? Feeling dislocated? Alienated? At a total loss with my art?

Guys, I TOLD you not to read this.
In two weeks I'm seeing my doctor and I am DEMANDING the happy pills. Which you have to admit beats my original plan of drinking myself into oblivion for the next two years....
Onward and upward.
