Why wear a ribbon?

  "To show my support for those suffering from mental illness." (SpacePhoenix)

MDJunction to me

aTinaL"To me, Mdjunction comes down to motivation. The support and information I have found here motivated me to take a very proactive stance regarding my illness. This led me to find medication and doctors that are giving me my life back.
More important than even the motivation, though, is the friendship I have found at MDJ. I have made some of the best friends of my entire life right here in this group. Even though most of us have never met, it feels as if we have known each other for years.
If Angels walk among us, and I believe that they do, most of them are here at MDJ." (aTinaL)

Hello, Cherita, glad to meet you. This is a very supportive place and you will make friends here, as I have. If you'd like, you could share a little about yourself. As Dit said, feel free to post elsewhere. If you have questions, go to the very bottom of the page and click on the FAQ link. Many questions about the site are answered there. You can always PM (private message) a Group Leader as well.

Again, welcome.

Hey Cherit

Welcome

I'm pretty new here myself but the thing I found the most helpful is that I have discovered that a lot of things that I thought were "just me" are experienced by other people with BP too. It has been really reassuring.

So again, welcome
