Well, I guess not really wow. I guess I should expect that. Money makes the world go round.

Red, all I can say is WOW!
Your commitment and passion leave me speechless. You can't fail with your attitude.Look at a stone cutter hammering away at his rock, perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet at the hundred-and-first blow it will split in two, and I know it was not the last blow that did it, but all that had gone before.

There is nothing here to be wow about. I know I juggle a lot, but nothing I juggle is optional. Except for what I'm leaving behind. I am not doing anything you wouldn't in my circumstance. All I want is to be AF. Or maybe not, I'm not even sure what's normal or right for me. I would assume with my genes it's AF. Dr Ll told me today that I'll be able to leave alcohol. If I want to take it, so be it. I guess that means I'll be completely normal. Have a glass of wine with dinner, or a few sips. Whatever. Told him my plan. I don't think he agrees about leaving my job. Feels the SE's improve as one titrates up. Don't know. Just going with my gut.This Princess Saved Herself

I'm impressed with your commitment and what sure looks like wisdom in approaching this. In a couple weeks, I'll be out of work again and have been struggling with the thought of job hunting. I loved my job part of my job, but the office politics stuff just made me miserable. I didn't realize how much of my mind the unhappiness encompassed until I didn't have to think about it anymore. Even had a dream last night where I was suddenly back there permanently, and it was miserable. I woke up depressed - until I remembered that it was just a dream! Trying to titrate up around my co-workers would have been a no-go.
I think you are seeing priorities clearly. I'm going to follow your lead and just focus on this for now. The opportunity is upon me - might as well take it.
And I believe that you are "accomplishing" something important, both here in this forum and in your own life.* * *

I was asleep (sob sob)!
Hmmmm. That would explain the shocking silence. Certainly shows Big Pharma in a somewhat "gloomy" light, that's for sure!
I've always loved a good conspiracy, but this one seems almost too good to be true. I suppose if Dr L is found hanging in his office we'll get the picture. I can certainly see why they would do it, but at the end of the day it comes down to one guy, sitting in a chair, saying "No, it's definitely a cure. Suppress it." Could anyone actually do that? I suppose so, looking at the world.
How did Dr L say he got wind of this whole thing, other than to just look outside his window? Did he say anything else that might help us?
It's quite a lot to absorb, to be honest. While I can believe it, and it goes a long way to explain the complete lack of a reaction to this incredible drug, it seems too fantastic.
Sorry for this jumbled post, I'm just saying things as they come into my head.
One thing's for sure, I'm going to try stock up on baclofen. How does one buy a lifetime supple of a prescription drug though? Can you imagine baclofen suddenly disappearing from the shelves?
Aaaaargh. Rather than just post a collection of useless thoughts, let me have a decent think about this. What's your take on the whole thing red? Does Dr L sound like the type of guy to run with a fanciful notion? Not the impression I got.

I don't know how it works in other countries, but I'm pretty convinced that the USA is corporate owned. It does not surprise me that pharm is corporate ruled too. I think it's all pretty much ruled by insurance companies actually. I'm headed to dark place, and I'm backing away slowly.* * *

It's definitely going to make us appear loonier than we already do!
"There's this cure, right, for alcoholism!"
"No there's not, it's an incurable disease. You are just weak/riddled with moral defects/ a drunk/etc, take your pick."
"No, honest, there's this pill you take, and pffft, just like magic, your cravings disappear. It's because it's a disease."
"Hmmmm, okay, you might have a point, I'll buy that."
"But there's a massive global conspiracy to..."
And at this point, you've lost them. Guaranteed, every time.

Sorry Bleep, my phone lost it's charge which happens often when I use it for my Internet. I took a nap, now I'll begin my nightly ritual of waking 10 times. Naw, I think he's being genuine. Or as genuine as he can be when he wants to believe in something this much. Lots of names. Some related to this new cancer patent. Politicians, scientists, family members of politicians, ect.
That's all I'm saying. He won't be dead in his office, but I might be. Lol. It's not a conspiracy so much as just the way it works. It's about the almighty dollar and big pharma and politics control everything. Especially research grants.This Princess Saved Herself

No need to stockpile. It's not going anywhere. It's showing so much promise in the treatment of autism. We may be weak willed and morally defunct but innocent kids definately aren't.This Princess Saved Herself

So one last thing and then back to dreamland I go. Why not take this drug and concentrate it, change the name for marketing, charge up the ass for it, and then offer it to sick addicted people? I know this is overly simplistic, but it seems logical to me. They can make billions and people ( who can afford it with insurance), could use it. I know that's bullshit too, but just sayin. I believe they are using a concentrated form with autism.This Princess Saved Herself
