MDJunction to me

grandmasylvia"MDJ has been "a soft place to fall" for me as Dr Phil says. I have this very painful rare disease Dercum's Disease and take comfort in finding others here who share their knowledge and compassion. Many

my pain. We are working together to encourage research toward a cure.

I don't keep a mood chart........but I'm supposed too. Lack of sleep is key to me that a hypomanic episode is present, because normally I'm a 8 hour a night sleep person. Beth
