I've read all your comments in this thread and believe you. I know what you're describing is extremely painful, but help is available. Other users have mentioned some, and if you feel it might help you're welcome to email me at [email protected].
I'm sorry about the unhelpful replies some other commenters posted. I don't think people do that on purpose. It's because they can't imagine that level of pain, and perhaps don't want to, because it's scary. So it becomes easier to assume that it can't be true and the suffering person must just be trolling. But it certainly can be true, I believe you, and if the voting on comments is indicative, so do most readers.
