It's Time!!!

I have been a lost soul for a very long time, emotionally. After years of prescription drugs & useless counseling visits..... I was fortunate to find a counselor who "got it".

Unfortunately, I have not been able to find ANY doctor who "gets it" as of yet. I definately believe that finding a doctor who believes in medicine the same way that I do will help greatly!!

I have been a lost soul for a very long time, emotionally. After years of prescription drugs & useless counseling visits..... I was fortunate to find a counselor who "got it".

Unfortunately, I have not been able to find ANY doctor who "gets it" as of yet. I definately believe that finding a doctor who believes in medicine the same way that I do will help greatly!! As I believe that there is a line in the sand..... on one side of that line is the doctor who is DRUG HAPPY & the other is the doctor who WANTS to help solve a problem. And the second one may need to prescribe a drug for a short period of time: but is ACTIVELY searching for REAL ANSWERS!! Does anybody know of one in Indiana???

I have been through 26 years of major depression. During which, I was sexually abused by a doctor. I was physically abused by my sister. And neglected by my parents. I also have been divorced twice: my first husband was physically & sexually abusive. My second cheated on me.

I also have had 2 children who I lost due to major depression after I made a very bad decision to have an abortion. (though I was already depressed, the abortion I had simply made me hit rock bottom). I also lost my job during that time & wrecked my car. I haven't had a vehicle since.

After that, I was poisoned by stachbotrys mold. Which took me almost 3 years to recover completely from. As well as spending 6 weeks in a rehab center & another 4 months in a nursing home: where I was verbally abused & threats were made.

After everything that has happened in my life, I can FINALLY say that I have found peace. Oh yes, there are times that I get so angry; especially at the medical community as a whole that I could strangle them!!! But it's actually a part of feeling what I haven't been able to feel for years: because of all the drugs I've been on that those quacks prescribed without any concern about WHAT they were doing!!!

I have now emerged with very strong beliefs out of all of this. I do not believe that doctors have my best interest in mind whatsoever. I also do not believe in rehab centers who do the rehab thing 20 mins a day.......

I also believe that if anyone has a loved one in a nursing home...... they need to take whatever steps they need to, to protect that loved one.

And I am now most definately pro-life.

I am also tons stronger than I have ever been!!! I enjoy my life........ and I have goals that I'm looking forward to achieving. I've found that living alone is great........ I do have my pet cat to keep me company & he's definately better than any man I've ever met!!! Plus, I do get to do ALMOST anything I want....... (I rent, so???)

Who I am is definately not who I was........ but I'm looking forward to achieving my goals for the future.

Welcome to the Acid Reflux Support group. I think we have some things in common ... :) Do you know about celiac disease? Eating gluten was causing my depression ... I hope you take the time to read about it. Try "Gluten Free LIving for DUmmies by Danna Korn" from the library or take a looong read at Barnes & Noble. It's a malaborption disease from eating gluten. Which is in everything. You can be malnourished or have leaky gut other ways though. It wreaks havoc on your immune system. No, not many doctors think holistically. I'm glad you've taken back control and are getting better. Wish I knew a doc, I'm trying to find one too. Keep taking care.
