Glad to hear you're doing better.

Tabs, While there is a grain of truth in what you say this is an impossibly difficult condition to have and medication does help. Some people only take medication and they do in fact take it for life, others take medication and therapy and do well and still others take medication until therapy is totally sucessful. The latter are usually the milder cases. It's illogical to assume that someone can cure an illness with their mind, but many people make the false assumption that mental illness is all "in your head" and you could feel better if you wanted to, that is just not true. I still take a small dose of medication for my panic disorder and I've spent the last 10-12 years working on desensitizing and cognative behavioral therapy, the therapy has help me to control the attacks and sometimes prevent them but I couldn't have made it this far without the medication. The good news about this illness, at least in my case, is that it does get better with time.

1fast, keep up the good work, you're gonna be fine. Email me if you ever need help or have a question.
