I can behave myself, provided there aren't any particular anxiety-producing incidents (anything involving large beetles, for instance....eek!) which I'm likely to completely overreact to. No one really suffers except me, and frequently some professional somebody or other gets extra work. Usually someone in the insect-related fields (exterminator, handyman armed with caulk and expanding foam, chimney sweep...)
Oddly enough (and this goes with the "dumb" part), spiders don't bother me at all. Even when I was bitten by a black widow (ow!) it didn't have the same effect that just having to go out to the compost bin at dusk when everything is crawling in there... eewwwwwwwwwww... Honestly I'd rather be bitten by another black widow than come face to face with the larger beetles. But retiring to the arctic would also be good.

I had meds for the PPD (since there was nothing to do about the sleep deprivation! LOL) and they worked, but with irritating side effects. I know I could take them again, but it's not really that bad.
