I had to abandon Dvorak because it killed my ability to do QWERTY. It was also an almost traumatic experience because when I was going through it I felt like I was going crazy or that I was just plain stupid. How could my brain possibly discard 20+ years of QWERTY after just a few weeks of Dvorak.

But having said that I recently learned that other people have had the same experience and so now I don't feel so bad and I want to change again.
