I can't tell you how good it is to hear news like yours, Caren.

I hope you just continue to stay in remission for the rest of your life.

Help us here, won't you?

  Thats great to hear. Mine is also doing very well. I think that by finding the right way of living with this desease/disorder we gain a huge measure of peace. That and acceptance that certain parts of this disorder will allways be with us. 

   I'm also off my meds, been so for quite awhile. I've changed my life, pay my bills early, keep bad relationships at arms lenght, spend more time excersising, and spending time with my puppy. ALl those things have led to a huge decrease of my issues.

  Glad you are doing well.

Bill,
I am curious which came first. Going of the meds or remission?

It has been 3 months for my remission.  And I still feel good.

    My remission was directly tied with my life in general stabilizing. I got my financial house in order, got away from a bad  relationship. The meds helped, but as i spent more time on my own, getting my life in order, my problems became less and less an issue.

   So as problems went away i started taking less and less medicine. I am now free of it. I am still on guard, allways will be. But being honest with myself, practicing acceptance, buddism, and lots of excersise has been tremondesoly helpfull for me.

  But it took three years, a divorce, a fresh start over has led me to a place where i am much happier. Only you can find the rescipie for what works for you.
