Hi
This time last year I was a total wreck and would never have believed I would be writing a posting about how good I now feel.
I was depressed, frightened, lonely, paranoid, doubted my sanity, scared to be on my own with my baby, desperate to have my old life back, you name it, I felt it. When I read the stories on this website I so wish I could wave a magic wand and make all the hurt and fear just go away for all of you who are suffering. Unfortunately I cannot, but I hope this posting will give you some comfort that you will get better.
I am now a mother and at long long last I feel like a mother and I enjoy it. I love my daughter with a passion that is so strong it takes my breath away.
I just want to say to all of you who are battling with this wretched illness that you will get better but it just takes time. I know you are probably sick of hearing that comment, I know I was.
I hope I don't sound patronising
, but the fact I have read so many of your stories I feel like you are all friends and I so want for you all to get better.
Even though I believe I am now 99% recovered, I will still keep posting and replying, as I now want to be able to open a posting from all of you saying "I'm Better" and I will!
Much love to you all and here's to your speedy recoveries.
