I meant to reply to this before. In fact I thought I had. I sometimes wonder if anyone has a voice in this forum. I know personally ''many'' who have left and the reasons may not be what the ''specialist'' might think. I wish you luck finding a therapist with not only the expertise in the diagnostic criteria, but also - and maybe more important - with the heart to listen and comprehend. The DSM only goes so far imho. Peter Lomas ''the limits of interpretation'' gives an introduction to this vast topic.
