Gals,

I can so relate to everything you all have had to say on this topic of doctors and therapy. My family doctor still doesn't have a clue to meds and especially withdrawal from them. When I mentioned electric shock feelings on withdrawal (and I mentioned them more than once), all she had to say was "Interesting." I am very thankful that I've found a wonderful Christian doctor who's a mood disorder specialist and is presently treating me.....but we're still doing the up and downs of trying to find the correct meds.

I've had good and bad therapists but can say I've also found a wonderful one in this program I'm presently in. And there's always the ones that "could" be good for someone else but just not for us.....

I know if we all hang in here together on this and support each other, it will be such a blessing to each of us. That's a huge part of the battle, just having someone who understands. But, as Eagle said, there's no glimmer of happiness when we're caught in the quagmire of sinking depression.....and the last thing we need to hear from someone is "What have you got to be sad about, you have so much going for you." If they could only truly understand!

Hugs,

Mary
