It's always the same, if they don't got it they don't get it. There are many on the wild ends of eunoia but not to the point of illness. The wisdom of family and friends, whatever, may be just the perfect counselors. I applaud and respect your contentment in assuming the labels, mom and wife. They are tremendously important and difficult roles.

It is a mistake to think everybody is as you. We are all different and in my experience it is control and stability that is being sought, the afflictions can be debilitating no matter what you call it.

So please, don't assume that because the illness I treat has a name, I consider it a club to seek membership in. I for one do not want what I have.
