its interesting about diagnosis....i think everyone has to go through it their own way. people kept telling me not to focus on Dx but just symptoms...but my thinking was "i want to know undisputably what's wrong with me cuz then and only then can i Fix it"
well, after enough time and several...docs not wanting to say absolutely did i finally just say...ok. whatever, just lets find the meds to help.
my last pdoc (who was just the best) and current one think it's a combination of things...and 20 min is pretty darn good for pdoc. my very first pdoc (who s@cked) only took 5 min MAX with me...no wonder i ended up in the hospital...
and i'm sorry the hallucinations are so scary. i understand a little. i don't what to get into specifics right now. but i understand they can be very scary. but there are several meds that should help with them. have you started a med regimen?
Oh about your deformed faces...i don't get that...but at one time i would keep seeing people/things like puzzle pieces and kinda fuzzy. i think this might have been more of a dissociation thing though.
awwwwww i even like the name silkies..they sound wonderful.
i think people relate to different book. i'm sure there are several other people here that can recommend some of their fav books...theres actually a board here for that...
but i actually read darkness visible a few months ago. i think he is a great writer...but for me it seemed i'm not sure how to describe it...almost romanticized?? not quite sure i thats right word or not. but it was a nice account of what he went through.take care emily99
