> I met a number of Babblers in Toronto, some years ago, when Dr. Bob was presenting at the American Psychiatric Association annual convention. I well recall the response of psychiatrists attending Bob's session when I proposed that the doctors should listen more closely to their patients. It was heretic, in some respect, when I proclaimed that my own recovery was more closely linked to Psychobabble than it was to my monthly visits with a psychiatrist. Even Bob seemed shocked, but he never discussed it with me.

That is awesome, Lar.

I ultimately came to the conclusion that the peer support I received on the Psych board was probably more valuable than the therapy I was there to discuss.

> Some months ago, I mentioned that I had "graduated" from babble. What I meant was that my life's focus was shifted towards reinvention. I'm not well, by any objective measure of wellness. I would estimate that I function at somewhere between 30 and 70% of a healthy me. Now, I focus on managing function, rather than being focused on dysfunction.

I am so happy for you :-)
