MDJunction to me

neshama48"Having Crohn's Disease for over 26 years, in the first few years, it lonely and isolating.
Though now my disease is in a near perfect remission, my friends and family are sympathetic to me, but I can not talk to them about this disease. When I stumbled across MD Junction, and met others who had the same disease I was not alone in battling the disease. MD Junction is like a second family, without the judgement or guilt of having Crohn's Disease, but they do give you love and support.

If you do something totally stupid and there is no one around to see it, do you still blush?

Well, I put dishwashing detergent in the fridge (almost) a few days ago and realized my thoughts are really making me unable to focus. I laughed at myself, even told my boys.......so nope I don't blush. Sometimes laughter is all you can do
Lamictal 200 mg twice a day
Buspar 30 mg twice a day
wellbutrin 300 once a day
nuvigil 150 mg (helps stay awake)
bactrim 800 mg 2 times daily
ambien 12.5 nightly
and that's hopefully all.......

I will blush still even if no one is around. Totally silly!
* When nothing goes right...go left
* Attach your own oxygen mask before assisting others
* Women are not that complicated. How hard is it to tell us
we are pretty and give us chocolate?
* Be kinder than necessary, for everyone is fighting their own battle.
* Worrying doesn't empty tomorrow of its troubles. It empties today of its strength.

150mg Wellbutrin
75mg Topamax
1 mg clonasapam
and prn

I laugh, and occasionally I start fearing the aging process.

But in general, I have no shame!

If all else fails, blame the dog. "Mac, why did you put the tea pitcher in the fridge empty last night"?

Do bike riders wear bright reflective clothing so you can avoid them or aim for them?
I've been practicing

You cannot change the future because you don't know what it holds until it is here, then it becomes the past, and why worry about the past since you cannot change it.

I am only as strong as those who support me.

If blue is a 'cool' colour, why do we wish for blue skies and hot weather in the summer? Is that not a contradiction?
