Time, if we survive the consequences, may cure it but I wonder. I really don't think there is a cure, per se, but rather a point may be reached where we say I give up..whatever will be will be...is that defeat or a better way of looking at it? Do you take the meds occasionally or everynight? I'm so fearful of them that I probably lessen their effectiveness. Do you get angry about all of this and feel helpless or is that setting up a victim approach? Sorry Roger about all the questions but the last few days have been hellish and I'm barely hanging on...problem is, I don't know how to "throw in the towel"...but this is ruling my life and my head. If what you think, you become, then I'm in for a rough road because I'm not thinking very good thoughts now...how can I? I've only slept 2 hours the last 3 nights. Thanks again!
