Ang,

Please don't feel you've brought anyone down.. we all have something that brought us here. It's good you're getting it out, finding support. I'm sure several here will identify with how you feel. Personally, I'm male, neither abuser or abused... I'm glad you've gotten away from that....

As for meds... is there anyway you can qualify for low income medications? Many companies will provide meds at little or no cost if you qualify.

Hang out a while... see how you like it.. it's really a great group of people
