My shrink once suggested I write a memoir. I am not sure why; my life has been pretty uneventful. I guess I should have asked him. Anyway, I feared it would be what Neil Genzlinger in The New York Times described as “writing uninterestingly about the unexceptional.”
Since then, my shrink recommended I start a blog to share my experiences with something called the Fisher Wallace Stimulator, and to give others a place to share theirs.
After almost 15 years of unsuccessfully experimenting with many psychiatric medications, herbs, vitamins, and alternative therapies for symptoms of depression, anxiety, and insomnia, my psychiatrist recommended I try the Fisher Wallace Stimulator (“FWS”), which has been reported to help with symptoms of all three conditions. When he first mentioned it, I of course went on the internet, where scores of people post about their experiences with all types of treatments for mental illness, but I found next to no information on the FWS—other than the manufacturer’s own website.
So, this is my Fisher-Wallace story. Please add your own experiences.
