I am very experimental but that part... no way.

That is not good or bad of itself. I always use the "extra" time to worry about things that I cannot possibly affect. The phrase "now that we've solved the problems of the world, what should we do now?" is appropriate.
"Appropriate" for me is worrying constantly about every little detail of life. How I can "Murphy-proof" my life ... an impossibility: you cannot make anything foolproof; fools are too ingenious ... which ends up driving me from one state of depression to another.
With a much lower processing speed, my brain will have much less "extra" time to use and I will not be driven into a near-constant state of depression. Yes, medications do help, but not nearly enough. With less time to worry, I will worry less.
And thus be more happy.

Traveling seventy-five to one hundred miles [the distance to the nearest large city] to see a therapist often enough to make a difference is not a viable option ... not with gasoline the price it is and my finances in their decrepit shape.
