I’m diagnosed with bipolar disorder and land somewhere on the autistic spectrum.
I was recently diagnosed with moderate stage 3 chronic kidney disease. That lead to a (hypo)manic episode where I irritate and yell at people as I change my medication from lithium to depokate.

Man, my heart goes out to you and others on these problems.

--Jeff Moden

RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.

I've updated the "pitch" for the group a little:

I created this PUBLIC Facebook group for people to give and receive peer to peer support for mental illness:

While there are many private places to get peer to peer support, it is hard for new people to join them because they can't see the tone of conversation before going through the admissions process.

There is also typically a delay that can frustrate some of the people seeking support.

Remember that in an emergency care is best delivered in person or via telephone at 800-273-8255. You can also reach a text crisis line by texting HOME to 741741.
