The next symptom is “derealization” experiences purportedly evidenced by Mr. Comer’s December 20, 2001 declaration. (Id.) Another symptom is difficulty with concentration and memory, and Dr. Kupers found that Mr. Comer has intermittent difficulty concentrating and that he has significant memory lapses. (Id. at 81-82.) His support for this observation is that Mr. Comer does not remember meeting habeas counsel, nor various disciplinary sanctions imposed on him. (Id. at 84.) Acute confusional states is also a symptom that Dr. Kupers testified that Mr. Comer has, but “not so much in recent years.” (Id. at 85-86 1970, 128 L.Ed.2d 811 (1994)(<HOLDING>). The question before the Court however, is
