Reggie, these mental or affective illnesses
can have as draining an effect on the patient
as well as on the observer of the patient.
I was the observer. I am aware of how
dangerous depression can be on someone unware
of its creeping effects (that anasognosia thing)
that Dr. Torrey named --i.e. being oblivious to the change in character and mood, as it sinks and
gets worse, more erratic, more suicidal.

I am glad to post something happy on the reversal
of this situation. Panic and perplexity set in at some times and I think some of my posts showed that.

I think a lot of us like you, have been through
experimentation. It's a difficult area to treat,
and also, the drugs have too many side effects that encourage people to give up on them.

Take care,
