Hello again. I was surprised at, and grateful for, all of the responses my post. I didn't really make it in expectation of any solutions, but more to admit to myself that I have a problem, as well as to see what others would think of my situation. Though I was worried, I didn't trust myself enough try to judge on my own whether or not what was happening to me was serious enough to seek attention, or whether it was simply a normal part of growing older. It's difficult for me to even imagine telling someone I know about it, and the area in which I live isn't exactly brimming with professionals, at least not those which aren't known by the entire community. Your answers and stories showed me that I may have a reasonable cause for concern, however, and I will try to find someone to talk to about this face-to-face and try to straighten things out a bit, now. Thank you for your time, concern, sharing, and, well... just thanks.
