Cathy-
We hear, and understand, your pain and frustration. That's what this site is all about-people who know helping each other. If you don't have ICQ, get it. Its free from www.icq.com, and though it's kinda hard to figure out, it's a godsend. It allows us to message and/or chat live with each other.
There are probably no CH'rs who haven't considered suicide at one point or another. Most of us have cursed the docs and the insurance companies soundly. Between us all, we've probably tried every possible drug and alternative treatment. One of the insidious characteristics of the demon is that what holds him at bay for one does nothing to help another.
Get ICQ, add me (41013060) and the others (see the archives for address #'s). Never hesistate to message or chat me if you need someone to vent/scream/bi*ch at/ or just rely on. And several of us try to 'hang out' in the cluster chat room whenever possible (not just during the posted 'chattimes'), so check it to see if one of us is there. If you're really desparate, email me (just click on my name in blue above) and I'll send you my phone numbers. Illigitimi non carborundum (Don't let the bastard get you down).
We're here to help, no strings, no obligation.
If I may, I would like to ask that you not use all caps in your posts-many of us find it hard to read in in 'netetiquitte' it's considered shouting.
Keep the shiny side up.
Todd
