Hi Rainee.
I'm posting on your thread hoping I can be a ray of light in your darkness. I survived. I cherish every day now, have lost my weight (from 250+ back to 160's / 170's, I'm fully functional in daily life, and aside from a few terse moments (such as being stuck in a rather bitter divorce process and being flat broke) I'm finding that the challanges of daily life are not all that they once seemed.
I'm on Lexapro, have a T for talking and a pdoc for medication. I also have people in my life who care. I'm not "cured" and don't know if there is a "cured"... but I am prospering emotionally and enjoying my time in the sunshine. This is a change coming from being completely nonfunctional and suicidal.
It can happen. There is hope. Welcome to Babble (or welcome to this side, I didn't quite get if you're new or not) and talk away... there's a lot of good listeners here. :)
