I am sorry. I can relate to what you are going through - though each persons suffering and situation is different. I cannot say what or how a supporter feels, as the people here are my only real source of support. That is why you'll notice I vent quite a bit here. No one around me can deal with it. I have had alot of friends kinda desert me (for lack of a better term) because either I ruin thier buzz, or it quite frankly scares them. One of my friends said "I'm afraid one of these days you'll just lose it and take it out on the nearset person to you - and I don't want to be around when that happens."
With that being said, I still have a few good friends that I keep in touch with - but no one I would label as a true 'supporter'. I think the best person on this board for your wife to hook up with would have to be Margi. She has been a supporter a long time and is a strong source of support for members of this board.
I can understand the frustration that comes with multi attacks. I have been hit several times in the last 24 hours, and sleep is not an option for me (in fact, anymore I rarely sleep.)
Hang in there and keep on posting,
Carl D
