Judy, I've read some encouraging things lately about neurogenesis or whatever it is. That the brain can repair itself a lot better than they thought even recently. So there is hope that the damage can be reversed if the underlying problems are addressed adequately. Aye, but there's the rub isn't it? My stress hormones are still being pumped out at an alarming rate, even though I'm getting better at reducing the time it takes to return to baseline (I suppose). And I just can't imagine that the psych drugs that stop the cascade of chemicals are doing my brain all that much good either. But there's hope I guess.
