 "Bipolar Disorder" (drelew)

MDJunction to me

jayna01"My name is Jayna and I wanted to take this opportunity to say how much MDJunction has meant to me. I always felt so alone before I joined in April of 2012. I felt like there wasn't anyone that really cared about me and what I was going through. I felt like there was no one that would truly listen to me in what I was feeling. Nobody was there for me. That is before I found MDJ!

I have found and met such good people on these forums. I never ever knew there were such compassionate people before MDJ. It's also nice to know that I can come here anytime and get support for what I am feeling. I feel like I have met some wonderful life long friends. It is also an outlet for me to try and help other people that are hurting. It gives me a good feeling inside and gives me self confidence in helping other people.

I hope MDJ will be as good for you as it has been for me! Many Blessings and Much love." (jayna01)

Hi, I'm Rhiannon & I was diagnosed with Pipolar Disorder 6 months ago. I' still battling manic episodes & cycles of depression. I have two great sons (who have to deal with me) & great parents, whom we live with. Great support system....but I'm driving them all crazy!! I need to talk to people who REALLY know what I go thru....

Talk away kid, you are going to be a great source of info for me. My 36 yr old daughter & her 2 daughters (18 & 14) live with hubby & me. She is constantly asking if it's OK for them to live here and silly stuff like that. Oh, by the way, I am bipolar too so like I said....talk away! lol

Love

Gloria

Hi Rhiannon,

Welcome there all kinds of people here that you will relate to. Both bipolar, and loved ones of bipolars. I have lived with my Grandparents many times. It's good to have people who love you. It's also nice to have help while you are getting stable. I have bipolar, and a rapid cycler. It took a while to find the right meds to help manage my symptoms.

Are you on meds,and/ or going to therapy? It makes it all so much easier.

God Bless,Gypsy

from your side of it and from your parents side. it's great they are there for you.

if you ever need to talk just give a shout.

The voice inside my head doesn't like you either!

My journey to the grave will not be with an attractive well preserved body, I will skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand and wine in the other totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO WHAT A RIDE"


Too often, we lose sight of life's simple pleasures.
Remember, when someone annoys you it takes 42 muscles in you face to frown.
BUT, it only takes 4 muscles to extend your arm and bitch-slap that mother@#?!&! upside the head....ha ha

You have to love it.Cause you know we've all thought it.

I suppose your parents are Fleetwood Mac fans? What a prety name. i am a RUSH fan, and tried to name my daughters 2112 and YYZ, but my wife wouldn't allow it! I also know a guy that named his son Espn (prounonced es-pin). Silly.

Welcome to the site. Please hang out here often. Lots of cool people here with helpful insight.

"To me there are three things everyone should do every day. Number one is laugh. Number two--spend some time in thought. Number three, you should have your emotions move you to tears. If you laugh, think, and cry, that's a heck of a day." ~ Jim Valvano
