Hi Jen. It sounds like you are really starting to come to terms with your problems. Thats great news. I heard a doctor say that the only thing worse than knowing is NOT knowing.

Its good to hear that you are seeking counseling and possibly medication. That can be a positive and powerful combination in fighting the problem. The odds get better once you add yourself into the equation. Once you get really tired of living a life full negativity and realize that YOU can change, things start looking up. You really make the difference in the treatment. You can listen to a counselor talk themselves blue in the face or take a cocktail of pills without much changing if you do not want to change.

You can do it if you want to! Good luck (not that you'll need it)
