I surely hope I have not opened any can of worms here. I had hoped this could be light hearted AND serious if possible and the listing of all the medications was just an anonymous way to show how very common that *some* sort of treatment was - not to push meds - totally non scientific - though now I wish I had done it a bit differently. As in the DogHouse thread, I told that my diagnosis is PTSD - Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome. I have been on many. many anti-depressants and unfortunately, was not helped by any of them, though many people are. I take medication specific to control panic attacks and seizures. Like several people have said, my kitties are by far the most wonderful therapy I have - that and hubby as my very best friend! PetTalk is another therapy for me - a way to interact, especially during times when I am not doing well and am housebound. The Internet has enabled me to connect with and meet with survivors of the same trauma I have survived and I would otherwise have assumed I was alone!
BTW - I did check with Karen RE: this thread and if it goes *poof* that is the reason. The last thing I want to do is bring offense or hurt to anyone!!

*EDIT - I see that Karen posted so I guess the thread is A-OK
