 "Type I I Diabetes" (Soonergal81)

MDJunction to me

nvrsubtle"Not having any local Bipolar support groups where I live, MDJuntion has given me a place in which people understand what I am going through and has given me a new outlook on life with support that is real and good. Without
the support that I receive from MDJunction, I would be wandering through
life with no one who understands me. I owe so much to MDJunction for giving
me a life line to help get me through the toughest times." (nvrsubtle)

I'm not sure if it's common or not. Being sick makes me feel worse with my mood. It's great that it's put a damper on your cycling. That is a plus. I hope you feel better physically and emotionally as well!

I'm more moody when I'm sick. It has the opposite effect on me. I'm glad you're feeling better mood wise.
