Japanese Brain Damage Trick

Dear Agony Aunt,
Thats the new addiction in my life. I was never into puzzles. But my parents got me hooked!!! I used to feel sorry for "Sudoku addicts" but now, I am one of them. Now, I solve puzzles in my dreams!!! Is there a rehab center that I can contact?
Thanks and Regards,
Distressed Sudoku Solver
Am back after along time. Around 7 months!!! Was not going through the best of times. In fact, the past 3 months have been the worst of my life. And since what happened was not totally unexpected, the period before that wasnt particularly rosy either. It was a horrible time for me and my family. During this while, I wanted to write and share several things. However, I prefered sharing them with myself. But now, when I have managed to scrape through the troubled times, I am back to blogging.
I want to thank first the almighty who has been really generous. I have had several bad phases in my life. Everyone goes through them. But the almighty has always made my life better after every fall. I hope this continues. And I hope I deserve it.
Then I want to thank some people who are more close to me than others. My parents, my wife Roshni, my sister Anumeha, my best friend and my brother Amit Upadhyay. These people have been my pillars of strength.....not only in the past three months but always!!! I am lucky to have them in my life.

There are several other friends, who helped me a lot. All my close friends are part of my morning prayers and I pray for the best for all my close friends. But I have special prayers for all of them now. And, I will be honest and admit that the list has become bigger now. There are several who were not really close to me earlier but they went out of their way to help me out. The least I can do to thank them is to pray for them. And I do feel ashamed that these people were not part of my prayers earlier.

Thank you everyone. Coz of you I managed to get past this ordeal.
