I too am not sure how I found this site and I just did today... I am grateful I did find it. I was just telling my therapist last night how alone I feel, simply because there is no one around me who seems to understand.
This has so far been a great place not only to find others who seem to understand but also to read some very well thought out opinions. Thank you Rach for bringing up this topic. I must admit the "offensive" topic grabbed me.
Now more than ever with "W" in office, we need to keep this topic in the open. Never having had to face such a difficult decision I am still greatful to have the choice in the matter.

> I had not thought of PB in the same way. Pain, easing pain... I guess in a way it is. The difference is here when we reach our hand it is with the wisdom and empathy that is gained from experience. When we reach out for those hands outstreched towards us it is with a sense of security. Sometimes, the only safety we might have known with these stigmatised illnesses we suffer from.

> Thank YOU Dr. Bob. I believe that my progress (or stability) has been directly affected by having PB. I see my PDoc, and take my meds, and try and take the best care of myself and my daughter that I can, even with the stress of a divorce and now a custody battle ahead of me. I just had a little run in with a kidney stone (thanks to genetics, and topomax), but there are no "Groups" around here for me to participate in. PB has been more supportive than not. It has been more educational than not. I'm not sure how I even stumbled on this site now, but I'm glad I did.
