You shouldn't have to cover up how you feel. That's extremely tiring. You are doing what you can to get through every day. I'm sorry your family does not understand. They need to be educated. Maybe print out some information off the internet and let them read it if they will. Tell them how their lack of support makes you feel. I agree don't cover it up just to make them comfortable. Hang in there. Joy, 37 years old

"MDJunction to me is a life saver... when i first was diagnosed with Scheuermann's Disease i wrote a message to a page i found on google, hoping that they could help me.... you'd never know it but that weird feeling (you know that one where it feels like someone actually cares) came over me when i opened my email next day to find that someone on the other side of the world (at the American Medical Library)had read my message while i was sleeping, and there low and behold was the address to MDJunction.... well it is everything to me, i live it breathe it and love it!!!!! I have found many people who are struggling with similar issues banding together to help each other. It is the best place in the world, and i couldn't think of another place to go to meet so many lovely people....
