I've been given neurontin for it in the past and it did seem to help some. It seems to have become worse in recent years, but I've also had a lot of other family stress going on which exacerbates all my symptoms anyway.
I don't know why some mental health professionals stay on the job frankly. They can be such aholes like we are SO annoying to them for being sick. Sorry jerk - we aren't having a good time here either.
I'm on social security disability and I've wondered if there are case workers or advocates for people like me? I've looked online, but I'm not sure where to find this. Mostly its to just back me up when I visit other doctors that aren't mental health. Some seem to think that because I have a disorder, I'm also a complete idiot. I probably have as many college degrees as they do........
