Hello harry
I was hoping you were doing so well you were off the board. Sorry to hear about the Celexa. I don't know all the medications you've tried, but hopefully you'll find another one that can help for a long while (hopefully forever), and not poop-out.
Glad to hear you've developed a friendship with your friend from the hospital.
My theory on your theory. My uneducated, unprofessional, unscientfic theory is that (if I rememeber correctly the majority of the people were in their 30s and 40s) because of their youth, not too many people in their 20s need help, plus usually they don't even know they have any mental health problems. When people get into their 30s and 40s, the illness often progresses, plus the person isn't physically as strong or healthy as they were in 20s. Hopefully during this time (plus probably their 50s), the person finds the right treatment and has learned a satisfying way to live with their mental illness.
keep taking care of yourself harry.
I agree with Noa--you sure do sound better than when you were first on the board.Janice
ps you could always call your yard an English garden and just let it all grow wild.
