So sorry it hasn’t got any better for you. I wish I had the answers to give you to feel good again. I can only be here if you need to talk.

Wishing you peace and happiness.

Been there. It was terrible, a real nightmare, but I've come out of it and can tell you there is hope. What works for me is medication and doing something with my life that is exciting and meaningful to me. The medication gave me the energy and ability to feel good enough to get myself out the door.

I don't know what the answer is for you, but I encourage you to not give up, to work with a doctor and counselor, and put your energy and thoughts into getting well again.

Take good care and know that you are worthwhile people who deserve to live lives of happiness.

So sorry for all your suffering, do you see a Dr. or better yet a Psychiatrist, you should not have to be suffering like this. I go to a support group and therapy. I read informative info. I can get my hands on. Try and find a support group, another member gave this email address to look for one: dbsalliance.org. I go to one and I love it, it gives me strength and encouragement, I also just started therapy and hope we can did out some of the nasty stuff in my brain that is making me ill. Anxiety is a cruel illness, and we cannot beat it by ourselves it would seem, so though I hate taking pills I take 5 a day. And B12 sublingual, they are important for the brain, it is cheap at Walmart. Do you have a friend you can talk to? We need comfort and connection to healthy people. I hope my words are of help, I am so sorry for you suffering like this, but be brave, go and find help. I send you strength and love, peace Sprinkle1

Glad to read you are on med's, how long, they take a while to build up in the brain, I hope they are the ones that meet your body type. So glad you have started therapy, please do not hold anything back, because you feel guilty, ashamed. Tell the therapist, they understand and they know that is something they have to help us with. I finally saw my therapist last week after waiting, she is lovely and I felt we cracked a hole in my silly brain on my first visit, I have had therapy in the past so it is nothing new to me, and if you get the right person it really works.

I am proud of you, and I send you strength and energy to keep pushing forward. Courage to keep you going, and love which we all need. So love & peace from me. Write to us and let us know how you are doing. remember we are here for you. Love & Hugs Sprinkle 1 xxx
