Very moving article from a Lyme patient....

I just thought that my experience may add some perspective to this

discussion. The changes in me are very real. I have no doubt that my

" experiences "

have been for a reason. It's interesting too....I wonder if psychiatry should

be

melding with spirituality and metaphysics? I don't think that what we are

talking about has to do with placing blame....blaming the victim. I feel it is

a way to look at things in order to overcome our difficulties and maybe even

rise to a higher place. I don't necessarily think that God is directly

sending these trials to us but if you'll notice....in my story...I kind of

asked

for something that would shake me up a bit. Maybe with some people it is less

obvious to them. I definitely don't think it should be used by the medical

profession as an excuse to NOT treat...that it's all in your head.
