Heh, I'm the same with DPS.  I can't concentrate on doing a rotation
or priority list and be aware of anything other than my action bars
and how long it is until my next action.  I can easily keep an eye on
health bars and what's going on in the world so I'm better at healing
than I am at hurting things.
