I'm new to this site, but not to this condition. I've been dealing with this solo for at least 20 years. I am feeling so relieved and excited right now. Just knowing I'm not the only one. I have suffered in silence so very long. As I look back, I wonder how I've made it. Finally....I can BREATHE! I'm so thrilled to have been awakened from this dream or should I say nightmare. Sad to say, but when I look around; I don't see anyone who looks like ME! Thanks for giving me a place to share my thoughts and feelings. I truly look forward to sharing my experiences and hearing from others. Again thanks, I can feel the load coming off. Whew.......
