Now we do, but it was almost too late by the time I got into treatment......I've struggled badly with it since I was diagnosed, and I think it's because I went so long without being treated for it properly.

But, there's hope for me yet; after all, I'm on a fair amount of meds but there is plenty of room to titrate up if the illness continues to progress, and I have an excellent pdoc who's on top of everything.

And having a psychiatrist who's on top of everything is a real gift, in my view. That can make a world of difference, and it isn't easy to be one who is on top of all of it in this day and age.
Thanks for this.
