Angie, I'm always here for ya. I was also told that the disorder is progressive. And as sqrl put it, we do get better at coping. I'm coming out of a major bout that the meds didn't help even a little with, but some of the coping techniques I have learned from others here and from the short time I've been in therapy kept it at bay. I hope that things get better for you. I'm just a PM away if you ever need me.
