Readjustment's Request

The traits that form a personality
 may undergo a fundamental shift
 and leave persona and its mind adrift
replace the certain with uncertainty.
Remaining narrative – fragmentary –
 the Psyche, it experiences rift,
 interaction, much changed, may fail to lift,
a person lacking former levity.
 If such a shift is formative, all fine,
 (require sound thought and mood to intertwine)
   a forward step, instead of stumbling block,
   a readjustment to the inner clock.
    No doctor, drug, prevents catastrophe,
    grant such folk time to steady selves at sea.
