I know how you feel. I've been dealing with it for most of my life. My latest survival strategy has been acceptance. I'm learning to accept that my condition is chronic and I will never be completely cured. This new attitude helps me get through the really rough patches as well as the daily problems. Instead of reaching for the stars and hoping for complete and permanent remission, I try to deal with it day to day and I'm thankful when I get some real and lasting (but who knows how long?) relief as I have since I started taking Parnate about a month ago, when I was a total basket case. I still have good and bad days and try to accept this as a fact of life for me.
