Hi Newmetal,
Tough it out and perservere on, it'll be worth it in the end. I'm about 5 months behind where I expected to be in my ortho treatment and sometimes I feel the same way as you, but I try to remember why I started this and focus on the end result. If it takes a bit longer than anticipated, at least it will be a good result in the end.
All the best.

I've seen lots of movement and tons of improvement but I admit I'm kind of getting sick of them too since movement has leveled off. I think that is compounded by the boredom of nothing new happening.
So I can understand. Nothing to balance out the negatives. Cheer up, though, you should start seeing stuff happening soon. And it seems once movement starts to be noticeable, you notice changes almost everyday. That is fun.

I feel your pain. I just had one of the worst adjustments and I'm coming up on my 1 year anniversary. I'm sooooooo way beyond ready to get these $$%^&&%$## things off. Originally I was told I might be in them 1 year and then six months in I was told 18 to 24 months.
Lets just say I was not a happy camper after that news and if its any longer than that my ortho and I are going to sit down and have a nice little chat.![Twisted Evil :twisted:](./images/smilies/icon_twisted.gif)
Good luck with your treatment.
