Yes - this site really is a life line isn't it. At my lowest moments coming here always puts a smile on my face or makes me see that I am not the only one going through this. It's wierd isn't it - none of this seems real, yet I've been ill for years. Getting advice from people here is so much better than talking to a doctor sometimes, as doctors basically don't have much time to reassure you that you are not a freak.
I have a great deal of respect for people with this illness who have children - I only have enough energy to look after myself and my partner sometimes, although I do feel sometimes that I am missing out on a family life (not that I want children, just a stable family home). I'm getting a puppy soon, and I think thats probably going to be demanding enough!!
