<<<The events of 9/11 made me hypervigilant, like someone with post traumatic stress disorder,...>>

The March 28 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine published a study done with residents of Manhattan, some weeks after the Sept.11 terror attack. It found that the incidence of depression and PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) was about double what could be expected, based on other population studies.

In my personal experience, I think the incidence is probably even higher than what NEJM found.

I have decided that it's out of my hands, and I will get on with what I can control

Yes... that's a good psychological approach that I try to maintain myself...

God grant me the serenity to accept those things that I cannot change, and the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.

And yes... it was blistering yesterday, wasn't it?? Gonna get it again today, I can see..
