Trey,

I firmly believe that I have an organ in my body that is PHYSICALLY impaired - my brain. Without medication, I cannot confront anything because the screwed up chemicals in my brain will not allow it - those chemicals are the *cause* of my distress.

Why, because it's your brain, do you feel you should be able to mentally triumph over it? If your pancrease were impaired, wouldn't you willingly take insulin? If your heart were beating erratically, wouldn't you consider a pacemaker if it were recommended? Your brain is another malfunctioning organ, just like the pancrease and the heart.

A long, long time ago I stopped searching my soul and accepted my condition as physical - not mental.

I hope you don't think I'm being wise - this is what I truly believe.

Judy
