[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 553877, member: 1550"] To answer your adoption question, since I was stable, I was allowed to adopt several times...lol :) And I am on medications. Now some that I tried did not help me and some made me even worse, but I refused to stop trying. I found two that do and I will take them for the rest of my life. I'm sort of a person who refuses to give up and a few bad experiences on medications was not enough to stop me from trying to feel better. It also was NOT going to stop me from adopting! :) I think having to do things for myself at a young age (no family support) gave me the oomph I needed to persevere and get better and also to make sure I could have the family that I wanted. PS--Good therapy helps too. I love cognitive behavioral therapy and a new type...dialectal behavioral therapy <------I like this most of all! [/QUOTE]
