I know that a lot of us want to get "better". however, that being said, we all have some issues that are moreso chemical imbalances in the brain. therefore theres no "cure" for the illness, but there is trying to get better at your life. Better in regards to having more good days than bad. some of us dont have the luxury of "getting better" persay. So I think all of us would love to get better in general and that IS why were here.
And the reason we stay is for the help in that issue(s) and then the fact that we DO make friends who are in similar situations helps.

A lot of us have also been abused. you never get over the abuse. you get past it. by working through it and thats what this forum is about.

Thats why Im here at least. Im sure others will be along with theyre takes on this . I hope to see you still posting. and we do care here. thats why we stay.

take care.
