Good to have you back Racer! I missed your wry wit. I haven't managed that "stress free life" either. People keep intruding and dragging me back into the real world. :o) Annie
PS Leonora, keep looking, but do your homework before trying any "natural" remedy. Herbal remedies also come with risk. For example, researchers at Loma Linda University School of Medicine in California reported that high doses of several popular over-the-counter herbal supplements could impair fertility. The report is in the journal Fertility and Sterility (February 22, 1999).
Since I haven't found an effective pharmaceutical (including experimental), I'm currently considering alternative methods of treatment, like accupuncture or Reiki to relieve some of the depression. I'm also researching Chelation Therapy because someone I know who was also treatment resistant had great success with it. The process of doing the research is, in itself, therapy of sorts for me. Keeps me off the streets!!> I've found that a stress free life works for me....
