Edit
I know from your previous post that you are feeling very low and I can sympathize. The first doctor who diagnosed me said, "you will get worse and worse and eventually you will not be able to talk at all." Since I'm a teacher I felt like I had been given a death sentence. So I saw a different doctor who gave me botox every couple of months and I have been teaching with ADSD for four years now. I know if you are out of work it would possibly be hard to go to a different doctor, but as many on this board can testify, SD does not have to mean the end...it is the beginning of a new way of living....a lot different from before the SD but it can be a useful and productive life. We are here for you.
