Themoreloving1,

I just wanted to let you know that there is an end to the depression and things do get better. I am responding because i read a lot of myself in your post. I had a crappy childhood, abusive stepdad and twelve surgeries for cleft lip and palate that i didn't want. I was raped in college my first year and dropped out because of it. I ended up with complex PTSD, OCD, anorexia, bulimia and now schizoaffective disorder. I've had a lot of crap to deal with. But with therapy and medication, and eight years later my life has totally changed. I am now free of the PTSD and OCD for the most part, and the anorexia and bulimia. I am well adjusted and happy. If you put the time and effort into your recovery you will become well adjusted and happy too.

Just wanted to share the light.

Love and Hugs,
Tara
