I`m 53yrs old.Dealt with depression,anxiety,OCD most of my life.I can not hold down a decent job for any length of time. When my son turned 18 I was taken off medicaid so now I can not afford therapy.At this point I am dissapointed with therapy anyway,Received therapy off and on for 27 years.I still have flashbacks of the abuses in my childhood.Been turned down for SSI disability twice.The only thing that has helped is the meds.Now I find out that they are dangerous. Right now I wish I was dead.The only thing that stops me is I would`nt want to traumatize my kids and grandkids because I love them very much.
