The doctor wants her to begin sessions and take something for her OCD, and Emma resists. She says, "I don't know. I'm not sure I want to lay on a couch and tell some stranger all of my secrets. I don't want to start

Much of what you've said here is what my son said to me and I want to just hug you, like I did him, and tell you how brave you are and I'm so glad you got help.

I couldn't help him. I could never make it better for him no matter how much I wanted to. Until he was willing to go with me to the doctor, I thought I'd lose him and I was so scared.

It takes so much courage to get help.

Now that he's on meds, he also says a lot of the same things you posted here. And, he's back to being the person he really is. Like you are.

I'm so happy for you.

I am just so glad for you. I too know the difference medication can make, and I'm so happy you were brave enough to see the doctor and ask for it. It's such a hard thing to do -- but so worth it. Yay!

It made me so sad, reading how life was for you for so long. I can't imagine living like that. I'm so glad you got help and that you are feeling better!!!

Aw, I didn't mean to make you sad, Lisa! I am definitely feeling better & looking forward to continuing to do so :)
