I'm happy about the diagnosis, but pissed at the loss of years in my life. Thankfully I have a wonderful PDoc who is wonderful at prescribing the proper cocktails of meds.
Now I think I just need to find someone for talk therapy.
Nice to meet you all!

I'm in your boat. I'm tickled by your statement of med cocktail. I feel like a walking pharmacy with all the added phyiscal aliments. A therapist is a must have. Mine has been very resourceful with homework assignments, journaling, mediation, and holds me accountable when signs appear evident during sessions.
