Fenerous.....I look at it this way....in order to gain back some control in your life, you may need to take this med. It may only be for a short time, it may be longer, but for whatever time it takes, it's GIVING you back some control...not taking it away from you.
Just because you are going through this issue now, does NOT mean that you won't overcome it in the future and be able to live med free. This is just a stepping stone for you on your way to a healthier place in your life. Each step you take brings you closer to living that "normal" life you so desire
I wish for you strength to make that first step....You can do it and we're all here to help you on your way....good days and bad
Take good care!
