Oh, holymama I was in your exact spot last week. Unable to stop crying, scared witless that this will never end; that I'll be forever trying new medications and go through endless side effects; and that they won't work and we start the whole thing over again.
And slowly, the fog of despair and frustration lifts. I still don't trust glimpses of happiness when I see them, but I have to. This is my life right now.
I can't imagine what might have happened if I didn't find a p-doc and a therapist. It's such a long process - truly an art more than a science - and we are incredibly strong people to have come through what we have already.
Have faith. faith in your god, faith in your doctors, faith in the love of your family. Faith in the support you get from Babblers. We believe in you. You have helped so many of us - let us take our turn in helping you.
