Yes, exactly. I have heard that those who do not find someone to balance them out begin to feel the adverse effects within the span of three months, and that their condition only worsens. At the same time I would not hurry a binding unless you're absolutely certain of some compatibility with someone.

You are also not limited to a single tether, however understandably, you would still have to keep things balanced to a degree. If I may ask, what planet are you aligned with?
