Good for you. The IC and ADs really do need to work together to give you the best results for your life. ADs do help lift our moods and give us our energy back, but more importantly, they allow our brains to create new pathways of learning. Then the IC can help us look at situations and conflicts in a new way; to see different options and new ways we can respond to them, rather than just falling into old reactions.

So be sure to be patient with yourself here too. Four months is not a long time to be in IC, even with the ADs. Give it another year or so. There's likely many years of patterns there that have to be first understood, then undone. It takes time. I've been in IC for a year and a quarter, on ADs for only 6 weeks. And I STILL have crap that has to be worked through. So be kind to yourself, be patient, have hope. Thinking good thoughts for you, FMV.


I cannot complain for not receiving from others, that which I've never asked them for.
