Well said. The amazing thing about this disease is that no matter who we are or where we are from, we go through the same problems that disrupt everything we attempt to do and affect our relationships with friends, family, and even strangers. We seem to have to be on constant alert to our behavior to the point or close to the point of being parinoid. I just cannot believe the rest of the world can ever really get a glimpse of what it’s like to live with this disease daily. Limitations in the mind are extreme in my opinion and cripple me as bad as someone crippled by an injury except it is my mind that controls everything I do so the limitations are too harsh to deal with most of the time. Bunnyfire’s description is right on target.
