Unhappyguy. No matter the roadblocks...it isn't about fixing. That's a damned misconception that seems to be promoted and we allow ourselves to believe it.

I think too many docs don't stress that the shite is best approached by acknowledging problems...understanding them....and then stressing adaptation...and not allowing the patient to think fixing. 'Fixing' is ********e.

The illusion of 'fixing' mood and personality disorders continues to ravage the psyche and has some patients always looking for a 'normal' that doesn't exist. Hence an ongoing anxiety and depression from never getting there. That crap just adds to the existing difficulties. Folks don't need it. Too many believe 'fixed'.

Oh yeah, on another note Nicks link looked pretty interesting. Worth a look. I saved that one. Thank you Nicks. Hey Unhappy...take it easy...things can change. If I may ask...are you getting any benefits from medication? It can help with some things and may take some perseverance and trying some different ones. Lessening the pressure of some symptoms may change outlook enough to affect other things that have been problematic.

There are ways to adapt man...meds can be a great start but not unless the best ones are found. Don't mean to be intrusive...just curious to know the options you've looked at. Maybe folks here can offer some angles you haven't thought of y'know?
