I broke away from my family when I was 21. I will be 55 in February. I moved to another state. I moved from Maine to New Hampshire. I didn't feel like I was making progress with the doctors I was seeing. So I thought I would look elsewhere.
It took time but I found a better alternative. Things improved. I met new friends. One introduced me to my husband. We have been married now for 25 years.
I also met an excellent doctor from Dartmouth Hitch-cock Medical Center in Lebanon, NH.
He is a professor of Neurology at Dartmouth College.
He has been a big help in my dealing with seizures. Since I had met him, what a difference.
I am not sorry I decided to make my own choices and move away from my family.
In my case I think it helped. But everyone is different.

No, I've had to be on my own since I was 25, 1988.

Yes your not the only one.im 41 years old and I don't mind living under my parents roof.

No, I live with my husband. He takes good care of me. But am independent.. I do want I want to do unless he think I am not right.

It was. But my mother died in January. Now my daughter's have taken that roll. She's careful to make sure there are meals ready for lunch, she listens to my doctor. And she doest yell at me. The other one not so. But she's the one I live with. My medical care is having some real forward movement, that's important. The court took my children from me in the divorce. I keep hoping some day they'll forgive. I know what it's like to be an adult & never to be able to live like one. Sorry for you.
