Such a brave and courageous woman... We all want people to see us at our best -- but being able to step-up, when you are in such a bad place, to bring light to such a serious subject, is beyond gracious of you... I lived with such a gracious woman with similar disorders to your own. And, after being shuffled in and out of doctors offices, mental wards / institutions... I was finally able to get her to start doing Yoga with me. There are studies being done on how Yoga can increase the size of the hippocampus: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/deepak-chopra/yoga-and-the-brain-a-visi_b_7605504.html -- Give it a read, it was done by Deepak Chopra and some M.D's. I know, the woman I used to live with, swears by it and still practices Yoga on a daily basis. A good Yoga practice would consist of: Breathing - Poses - Meditation. It's amazing how quickly I've seen people take to Yoga!

Hang in there...
