MDJunction to me

"Before I found this site I felt so alone. Watching my daughter struggle with IH and being treated like she had two heads from doctors. I have plenty of family and friends but there was nobody that really knew what she was going through.
I not only have support and love from others who will listen and share their
story, but I have made some forever friends. Having this support site does make a difference to many." (djfilippone)

STOP TALKING ABOUT ME AND ANGER. Cause you know what? people saying I have an angry heart, an angry soul, an angry whatever....is the stuff that actually MAKES me angry. Do I still have feelings thatI have to sort out? yes. But i'm young, i'm healing, i'm human. LEAVE IT ALONE. I don't need your judgements. Stop it, please?

Darlin' anger is an emotion, it is healthy, it is normal, and it is certainly ok to feel it, express it and accept it as what it is. It is hurt and pain. I'm sorry that you are being made to feel this is being judged and not supported. If I have made you feel like that I am truely sorry. Anger is something most of us suppress, it is often regarding abuse, pain inflicted on us that we were or are powerless to defend ourselves against. Injustice at the hand of another that can not be made right. That is why most of us are here, to find support, to learn from others, who have gone thru similar situations and feelings. To learn how to deal with it, feel it, and release it.

I hope you find peace Erin, in your own way in your own time
