Probably easier to list what I don't experience but I don't have an easy way to tally it on my phone and post it here in text format and it's seeming like a lot of work so brain is refusing. Nothing personal meant, it's a helpful list

What's interesting is some of these are either shutdown or meltdown symptoms for me, they aren't just plain overload
