actually, dear, you are doing something about it.
You are talking to us here. That might not sound like much, but it is a little step. I wish I had something like this when I was sick, but the internet wasn't around back then. I was so alone and isolated, and had no idea what was happening to me, why I felt so bad...
I started going to see a psychiatrist, which made me feel like an inch tall. For me, it was a gradual process of acceptance, learning a little bit, and just enduring, and also mourning the fact that it took a lot of my life away, and I'd never really get "cured".
You shouldn't give up though. We definitely take the path less travelled, and while it looks impossibly difficult, it can be done.
