I, too, felt that trekkiegirl's post implied that all pain comes in physical form. And although I believe that the thread starter should not give up on trying to getting better, I also sympathize with how he/she feels. So being that this, after all, is SF, one shouldn't forget that people on this forum are sensitive and easily offended. A simple misstatement or improperly chosen word/phrase might make someone feel bad.
