AndrewB- I've wondered what became of you. Glad to hear things are going well. Over the past 30 years, I've often sought a medicinal "cure" for lifelong dysthymia. Not much success though. Thanks for sharing your insight on this subject (reproduced below). I value it greatly. Peace and joy!

Most dysthymics need to know that there is plenty of peace and joy in the world for them if they just let the world slowly teach them."
