Reply To: Sluggish Cognitive Tempo

I’ve been reading your posts for a very long time @ashockley55 and you’re one of the more solid and reliable characters in this camp. I’m sure it’s not just me thinking this.  I hope you don’t give up on finding the right doctors(s). I didn’t read you saying you are giving up. I just know how my brain works. I have given up at least a few times since I’ve been coming here. No crap.

I also know I’ve had sooo very many friends go through that awful, nasty, time consuming process of finding not just the right medication, or combination of therapists and doctors and support groups. Or community to surround yourself in. But to find all of this, and still manage to feed ourselves and also manage to get an education. I’ve been doing a lot of studying myself lately. For me it’s books, books, and more books.

I still get bummed out… It’s still painful. It’s less though. Much less.

I think I’ve gotten much more enthusiastic about reading since I’ve been coming to this site. I wonder if it’s just a coincidence?. Heck no!.

You are kicking ASS girl!.

People don’t necessarily tell us when we help them in this camp. But trust me, there are tons of folks who don’t have the guts to write so much about their life. Like you do. We’re helping much more people all across the planet. I wonder how many countries and languages what we say goes out to.

@Rick, hey Rick!, can you give us a few statistics on the traffic coming through here?.

So this is encouragement.

Please feel very strongly encouraged. And trust me, you’re helping many more pholks with a ton more problems that I’ll ever be able to figure out. I bet it’s a lot though.

Tons!.

Totally!

PS, I too have had that “heartburn from hell” It’s always a bad idea to compare anyone else’s suffering to my own. One person get’s their problem minimized, and the other gets too dang much attention. It’s just plain never fair. Life is not ever gonna be fair. But if we can treat each-other like the way people treat each-other on this web site?.

We will win!.

Don’t ask me what we will win. We all want to win different stuff. For me, I just like to be “the winner”. But what do people do with old trophies?.

Collect dust. And good memories…

We can have the stuff we want.
