Praise the Lord, second commented post on Hacker News. (i try not to capitalize i) i had been diagnosed with OCD, ADHD, and eventually Bipolar Schizoaffective disorder. I had been on all kinds of meds including Haldol, antidepressants, and amphetamines like adderall. My psychiatrist back in 2003 said i was a 9 out of 10 of the worst cases he had seen. I can now focus fine for over 12 hours, yet haven't even had coffee nor any medications in over 5 years. One big thing that helped me was that my dad here would start playing hymns on the piano and i would sing along, and my concentration eventually went up to about 3 or 4 hours, then eventually took up the piano myself and now i feel normal. Another big part was being able to spend time in prayer, fasting, and service to God and others. This helped me to have much more peace with what i choose to be doing, instead of feeling like i am wasting my life when something more important may be available. I am far from perfect but the Lord has been good to me, and i want to share He does miracles like always (i think this is kind of cool https://youtu.be/Pw9iSO7rUUY ). I do want to share how God has helped me through Jesus Christ, if i can help somehow please let me know in Jesus name.
