I always do that. My sleeping pattern is fucked and so I don't do things at a specific time (having no responsibilities is great) instead I start my morning routine whenever I wake up.

None of the Irish people I know are religious - maybe you'll meet atheists. Tongue

I've never had a psychotic break, but I currently suffer from anxiety and depression. I've started cognitive behavioural therapy and I'm taking prozac (I also self-medicate with cannabis). I'm just putting it down to adolescence and hoping it'll go soon. I doubt it'll result in a pyschotic break, but I'm rather curious about what it'll be like if it does.
I thought I was the Nietschean superman, then I fell off my chair.
