Noa,
Thanks for the support. Most days I love my job! I am very comfortable with children and always have loved school. I enjoy the variety.

Harry,
Your news is not good. Well, it is good that you spoke to your pdoc and employer. If the new med doesn't help, maybe the hospital would be your safest option. I don't know what it's like, or if you have been hospitalized before or not. Promise us that you will allow them to hospitalize you before carrying out any kind of self harm. Can you do that much?
Your Babbler-Buddy, Renee N
