I am often     warned that my time here at Kuro5hin exacerbates my symptoms of mental illness.   But in one very important way Kuro5hin serves as a medical device that enables me   to enjoy a certain very important component of sanity that would otherwise be   largely unavailable to me.    It enables me, for a time, to live free of a devasting symptom that was notably   absent from my list of symptoms that I published in three years ago in     Living with Schizoaffective Disorder because I was at the time so completely   in its grip as to be unaware even of its existence.  While I had by then undergone   over a decade of psychotherapy, I had not yet gained the insight necessary to   recognize this symptom, let alone do anything about it.    As I will explain, it is also one of the most difficult symptoms for mental   health practitioners to treat.  While some claim that some newer medications can help,   that's not my own experience.  I have found that talk therapy helps, but only very slowly,  over a period of years.
