Hi everyone, It's been a while since I posted or even that active. My focus over the past 5-6 months has been working with my niece who has PTSD and came to live with us. She was in a really bad place in her head and really needed someone who could understand. We are kindred spirits, we think alike, we enjoy the same things, we share alot of the same pains. We have done much healing, the experience has been a blessing for both of us. She went back home up north Wednesday and I guess it's just starting to sink in. I'm feeling a bit down now realizing that my bff is gone. We shared so many things together and accepted each other unconditionally. That's hard to find in this world. I know she had to go, it was her time, she has a husband & family up north that really love her. I thought I would be ready for the day she left but I guess I wasn't as prepared as I thought I was. peace & hugs

"When I was diagnosed about 18 months ago with fibromyalgia, I didn't know where to turn. I got on my computer and looked for a support group where I could talk to other people with the same disease and get some help...Information, suggestions, mostly just what I can do now that I have this.....disorder/disease/syndrome...I didn't even know what to call it. I found MDJ, and yes, there was a support group for fibro. I started a post, and figured I would never get an answer. However, very quickly I was welcomed in, and became really involved in the group. I received help, support, friendship and the feeling of being truly cared about by these strangers who had become like family to me. Now, I have been here for about a year and a half...I have become a group leader, and love every minute of it. It is so wonderful to be able to help others. I still receive help and answers from the members in this group. The fibromyalgia is where I go to help, support, listen, care and even laugh. I don't know what I would do without this group."

Now that I'm getting stable I need to be able to deal with every day ups & downs.
