Re: 3 Minute Cure for Brain Damage?

Hi Kaffy,

Everything you wrote makes sense to me. I think there are so many different factors involved.
I too get tired of not being heard or of not finding someone who can understand or relate.

I used to hope that I could overcome everything and be "normal" (whatever the hell that means). Then I felt there was no chance for me to overcome this, which made me feel even worse. Now I think that this is something I must live with, but maybe I can learn to live with it and still have good and useful things in my life.

Depression is bad, but to me, feeling helpless about depression and powerless to change is worse, so I think it is best to keep working on change and healing, and even if I'm fooling myself, at least I can give myself a goal in the meantime.

All the Best,

Noddy

> My comment: I guess I was 'thinking out loud' - and am thinking that our approach to finding 'cures' are a result of any/all of: medical, mental, physical input/thought processes, practice, etc., all of which in my experience have had the outcome of a change in behavior. My behavior changed with medication - some good, some I just needed to live with; mental, either due to self-realization or with assistance of a professional who knew HOW to help, and physical, either by stopping a bad habit, or doing exercises, changing what we can do for ourselves, either socially or other input. Not very well put, but it's the old "action-reaction" put in other words. So, yes, I believe that SUCCESS, or the REACHING for it does make for a change in behavior...and vice versa - it is WE who must CHANGE or ENDURE a change to obtain that hoped-for cure. I did not intend to make my words seem that they worked both ways, but in writing this, I think it is so. We pay a price even when we are NOT heard (NO CHANGE)- that is the saddest part. I am so tired of not being "heard", or needing to tell my story to too many people before I find one who can relate, and also is in a position to help - then does, with as much commitment as I have, in needing to be well. Sorry about all of that "stuff".
