I will never forget what the testimonies of healing in the Christian Science periodicals meant to me many years ago when I was first introduced to this Science. I had been living in New York City for about a year because of my work. My home was in Los Angeles, and I didn't know many people in New York.

For quite some time I had been struggling with a great sense of anxiety. I was also physically ill. Under this stress, as a means of seeking relief, I had come to rely heavily on alcohol and drugs (the drugs of that day called "uppers" and "downers"). Instead of receiving relief I was getting steadily worse.

At one point, one night at a very late hour I felt so helpless and so disturbed that I got on my knees and said aloud, "Dear God, I know You couldn't possibly make life so miserable for the man that You created. There must be some way out of this suffering."
