I don't have that information. They want people to call or email for information.

I would be interested, however I live too far away. I will be interested to see the results of the study.

I am 75 year old retired female and I choose to live alone in my home. I have suffered with anxiety and depression for many, many years. I have not been on the drug above; however, I was on Paxil and Clonazepam for the past 20-25 years. Dropping Paxil the past ten months and am now on a low dose, 1mg of Clonazepam per day. Due to a genetic blood disorder (Factor V Leiden), I have had numerous stokes, TIA's, and bone replacements. I am quite honestly having trouble with the "aging process". This past month I have come to the end of the reconstruction of my home, and in retrospect, since my physical activity is diminishing due to physical pain, I am lost. I cannot go backwards, I do not know how to live in the present, and I am stuck moving into the future. As humans we are taught how to have sex, how to give birth, given guidance as how to raise children. However, where, or when are we taught how to age gracefully? I am truly lost in New Jersey.
