In all these years of treatment I've been stunned that there's so little known about the causes and treatment for cases like mine. I've been otherwise healthy and all doctors have been able to do thus far was throw more meds into the mix. It's made me understand why some people on psych meds want to stop taking their prescriptions. Sometimes you just want to be normal without remedies that can cause some type of misery. I'm hoping for quick advancements in discovery as time goes on.
