I finaly broke down and made an appt, with an income based therapist today. I'm just becoming less and less functional, and don't see how I can go on like this. I did think, however, that I had hidden my condition well, fear of no longer being able to do so is part of what drove me to take this step. So when I casually mentioned it to my grown daughters I was amazed at their responses of "OMG it's about time!" and "Congratulations, Mama, you needed to" Here I thought I was the only one to know the severity of my problems, and in reality I was just the last to know.
