I will however say this, ive never been out of work, I have a mortgage ive never missed a payment on, i have 2 dogs to look after, plus a missus with a penchant for shoes - it cant have fucked me up that much if i still deal with that lot everyday

I know people with VERY serious mental illnesses who have done all the same sort of things.
You dont have to be in 100% perfect condition mentally to acheive those things.
Going back to the car analogy, if you thrash your cars engine from cold, it will still get you to work and back and not break down generally, you just might end up with some damage that results in slightly worse performance or economy, without comparing it to another car of identical spec that wasnt thrashed from cold, you would never know there was anything wrong with it, despite your massive "experience" of that car on a day to day basis.
