>Yes and no. As has been documented heavily of late, the interwebs is a place of anonymity. It's much easier to admit home truths in anonymity. Somehow it doesn't provide much relief. Also, the readers of this post are most likely to have brain cooties of their own. I want to acknowledge, salute and broadcast the pain (sorry if that sounds melodramatic) across the board - outside of a closed sympathetic community.

> Lol, I think I'd hold off on that stuff till you're feeling yourself again (jmho). Hold off on the cutting permanently please!
>But this is "feeling myself" I think. IBS and OCD and all the other good stuff is likely to be with me for some time to come. AFAIK IBS can just "end" at some point. No-one knows why and there aren't any other (non surgical and inadvisable) solutions. None.

> Looks like you're doing it by posting it here. Maybe some talk therapy? I don't think anyone cares if you "vent" here as long as you consider advice from time to time. (again, jmho)
>I see a shrink once a week for OCD who is great. You're right, that can sometimes be a vent. Maybe I should make a cut-out shrink I can talk to. It'd be a damn sight cheaper.

> If you're taking nardil and reporting your experiences on that I would think this forum is fine. And great that the nardil is working for you!

> Good Luck with your journey to wellness :-)
