> My experience has been that all approaches have helped me at different times (CBT, acupuncture, meds, yoga), and I find it unfortunate that some people on the different boards sound like you're supposed to choose your camp. It's a very good example of all-or-nothing thinking. I see your web site as a place to get info, share experiences, etc... and frankly, mine does not fit anywhere. The bottom line is that, with the different approaches I took, I am doing well, better than I have before in my adult life, and I am 34. Others should know that and think about more comprehensive, rounded approaches to their disease. I am sure I am not the only one who can benefit from that.
I'm sure you're not -- and I'm glad you have!

Well, different people deal with things in different ways. Hopefully, if they go in a direction that doesn't help, and there continue to be reminders about other options, they'll keep an open mind. Thanks for your input,
