I just wanted to thank ALL of you for your very kind and supportive replies and for the great questions you asked and good advice you gave. I just finished working (it's midnight) so I didn't have the time to respond to all of your questions, etc. today, but I did want to say thank you because it really does mean a lot to me that you responded. You all helped me to feel less alone and that really helps. I'll try to answer some of your questions tomorrow if I get a chance after work. The one thing I can respond to now is that unfortunately I can't really go out on disability right now, as much as I would really like to do so. I'm on a contract which will be up in June, and I have good reason to believe that if stopped working, they would just not renew my contract, which they would have every legal right to do because at the end of a contract they can let you go without stating a reason and there's nothing you can do. I'm not ready to just stop working all together if there's a chance that with some other kind of treatment I could work more easily.

Anyway, I am truly grateful for your support! I have to go to bed now so I can start all over again tomorrow morning, but as I said, I'll try to get to your questions if I get a chance tomorrow.
