i thought i had posted this before, but find no record. as i am, i may easily be confused by protocol. whats bothers me is running across a definition of psyhcosis (?) as 'a mental disorder resulting in increased social isolation'. looking back a decade i see myself moving in that direction. so i'm spooked. anyone else notice this going on? thanks

I would definitely check with your doctor, preferably a pdoc (psychiatrist) if you haven't done so already. I try not to take too much notice of certain definitions of mental disorders than I have run into in books ... they didn't help me at all. loneliness. I believe that there are other disorders besides psychosis that can result in increased social isolation. But again, I would recommend speaking to a professional. Good luck and welcome to the board - it's a good place for support.

Take care,
Fuzzy
