In small town Titusville, Florida. He doesn't know anything about

thyroid and adrenals though. But willingly prescribes what I ask for.

Titusville, hum, what a shame. My ex's sister lives there and I know

she's hypoT, her mother was hypoT, but she doesn't quite believe it

for herself.

Why the denial...I don't know. I showed her the STTM site, we

compared our bodies with her skinny sister, the answers are all there...

No one WANTS to believe there's anything wrong with them. I have two

sisters-in-law, both very heavy. I mentioned they both might have a

thyroid problem. Answer? " I've been tested, my labs are normal. "

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

What was I thinking? Trying to tell someone who knows everything

something?

Barb,

That is what I would like to learn more about--what motivates

people's reactions to health issues. I guess I am the exception, like

many members of this group. It took one person who didn't have

thyroid issues to tell me about 3 friends that had thyroid issues and

the medical hell they went through b/c drs couldn't find anything

wrong with them. I was SO SO desperate to find an answer for my

weight issue and depression that I was relieved to find an answer.

I was also relieved because I remember thinking, " ok I'm 25, and I

always feel shitty, will there be more to live than this? Is this all

there is? " That was after my last round of a useless

antidepresant,and I was feeling a bit hopeless-out of options.
