Thanks Bruce. Your not out of bounds. I do get counseling re:GD and clinical depression (which was diagnosed before the GD). I actually have gotten used to my family’ s attitude and should say that my mother-in-law is actually the most supportive member of my’immediate ‘ family. She is now terminally ill so I’m working on my husband to ” raise his conciousness” about me and GD. Thanx for the support. This BB has been a godsend for me!!Kendra
