But science can be wrong?! There are others out there who have recovered. Does science have to be apart of experience?

Showing that each person is human and imperfect, then truely connecting with others is a way of getting to a better life.

For me, I lost that connection at age 7, and that was too much to bear for a child. When I thought I would lose other relationships was when depression hit. My point is science didn't help, connection will help. And I can't let the fear stop me. Meds are a tool, not a life sentence. Science does show us that the brain adapts.
