I've dealt with depression, and my sister is going through it right now due to the injuries to her hip that has a faulty plate that has growned down the top of her femur. the mental health clinic she goes to is really good, and the price is very affordable. there are options out there, but it's as if it is only for those who know where to look. the asistance had really helped my sister... we just need to find a doctor willing to help with the faulty plate in her hip, since 90% of her problems are related to that pain. and the doctors are at a loss for what to do to help her. because our family is known for our metabolism being so out there that common meds just don't work, or in the worse cases does the exact oposite that they are suppose to be doing. Don't even get me started on the list of meds we're allergic too that most are able to rely upon, especially when it comes to over the counter pain meds that can be deadly to us.
and you're right about the media hype. it's getting to a point where it's turning my stomach that they are running with this so much that it's... it's really screwed up.

I do this because there is nobody else to do it right now. Believe me if there was somebody else to do it, I would let them do it. There's not, so I'm doing it.
