(Off-topic comment about the Creation: Have you ever noticed in Michelangelo's fresco of the creation of humans in the Sistine Chapel, that Adam has a belly button? Um, being born of a human mother is not part of the traditional narrative
They pointed this out on an episode of QI a few years ago too 
Above all, do whatever you can to keep your mental health as good as possible! If you can't get into the right headspace to manage your condition then you're going to end up in a downward spiral.
Even as a child I was never good when it came to taking pills, so having to take daily medication is a real struggle. There have been times when I've stopped my meds for various reason, be that just hating the pills, depression, hating the fact the I need the pills at all, or just forgetfulness. Sometimes this has lasted for several months, and I ignored contact attempts from my healthcare worker. My last break lasted around a year.
Finally got off my ass and got in touch with them again, and my CD had crashed to 96. They've moved me onto a single daily pill as opposed to 3 different ones, and I've done everything I can to be a good boy. In the last 2 months I've only missed a single dose, and that's because I just forgot one night. Overall, my numbers are climbing nicely now.
@tnar I follwed the same route to wind up on BiglyBT too. One feature I use regularly is the labelling/tagging function, so I can set up rules for new torrents when they're added. All my porn gets a porn tag automatically, then downloads to one folder before moving to a completed folder. I have another rule set up for the trackers I use for films or software. It;s just nice to have is all run without any real interference required. I don't know if other clients have that ability or not, but with Bigly I just download the torrent file itself and an when it's done everything is neatly organised into it's own folders.
The UI is quite nice too. I seem to be able to fit more info on screen than I can with most other clients.
From the rules:
"Requests for uploads are strictly prohibited. This includes the torrent descriptions, comments, forum and shoudbox."
@IncubusAZ Have you clicked on the bell icon to the left of the REPLY button and selected "Watching"? That'll give you a notification if anyone posts to the thread.
(You've probably already done this, but I only mention it in case you hadn't seen it.)
@Gaylmah-0 Usually when I've bought SSD's in the past the manufacture has free software specifically for checking the health of the SSD, in particular the total uptime and number of read/write cycles as well as the overall health of the drive. As @ianfontinell said, if it's been reconditioned (hacked, if you prefer to look at it that way) then you probably can't rely on that data now. My understanding is that after too many cycles the storage degrades and becomes physically unviable, not something you can fix through software.
In all honesty I would consider that drive to be a brick and remember this entire lesson in the future. If you have data you care about, don't buy second-hand storage. At least you found out before you put treasured files on there and deleted the originals.
