Hi
Yes, it has affected my relationships, past and present. I even find the disorder makes me anti-social, to a certain extent. Work has suffered a great deal yet I'm considered by third perties as having more than two brain cells.
I tried ECT and had to take time of work because of short term memory problems. It's been suggested that I now go through a wash-out period (which will take two months if you include the new drugs getting up and running).
Trust me, i've been there. The fact of doubting you pdoc is also normal. But if you respect her knowledge and skill, stand fast.
My fear of failure is a continuous spectre, but the fact that I can still question whether I'm failing or winning is a victory in itself.
Bye
