I apprecaite your kind words.

I, too was dismayed. I personalized alot of it and it made me feel sad and hurt. To be fair, I did receive some very kind and supportive postings at the time and I was grateful for them.

Looking back, I think some of it was a case of ill-timing. I did not realize the general climate of the thoughts and opinions of most of the posters there at the time. While I became very sensivitive on a very personal level, I can now see some of the commentary and questioning was borne out of an agenda and "cause" rather than particular to my findings. I still try to understand it - in my more diplomatic times I do

Anyways, posting/venting about it is helpful for me. I appreciate your support. Thank you

You're welcome!

But I wish you wouldn't have personalized what people said (though I probably would have, too.) I imagine they were seizing a chance to vent their own frustrations about a med. I noticed that a lot of people have VERY strong and unshakeable feelings and beliefs about particular meds! It sounds like you know that though. I wish it was easier to internalize what one knows intellectually.
