I'm not crazy, and I'm not a hypocondriac (sp?), and I'm not looking for special attention. I'm just looking for relief from the pain.
Your story gives me a renewed will to keep fighting and getting second opinions. Thanks for your testimony.

Now if it offends you when a doctor displays such arrogance, how does it make you feel when a preacher tells you, or someone you know, that you just need to "pray more"? -No matter what the problem or issue is, physical or mental.
This is the reason that I learned many years ago not to let people see me pray. If I am going through a struggle, they will just assume "ok, he's praying. Struggle over".
