MDJunction to me

jpcrps"When I found MD Junction, I was in the beginning stages of RSD/CRPS. I was scared, lacked knowledge about the condition, and felt very alone.

MD Junction changed all of that for me. I found friendship and terrific information from people who had first-hand knowledge of this syndrome. It was and still is a big part of my life.

MDJ was my first step on the journey of grief; from denial to acceptance. I am now inspired to help others by sharing this amazing site and sharing my own experiences. I am very impressed that one forum site can provide hope and inspiration to people suffering from so many different conditions. I am proud to be a part of this community.

I've been on for a few weeks and never introduced myself. I am Renee.....a Boston Terrier lover! I was diagnosed BP1 after being hospitalized in 2009. I suffered from several bouts of depression since college. I am a rapid cycler - sometimes daily and when I get lucky it is every few days or weeks.

I tried putting a pic but get an error everytime sorry.

I do go to a support group on Monday nights that is great. I feel this site is very helpful and have recommended it to the group tonight. Hopefully we will have some new peeps from Western New York coming soon.

Looking forward to much posting,

BT Lover

Welcome Renee,

We are happy you found this group and find it to be a helpful place. We all have this as a safe place to be ourselves without judgement, yet accountability. Each of us live with BP and this can be a great place to seek out the wisdom and experience of some really great people. Thanks for spreading the word, the bigger our group becomes the more exposure we get on MDJ! Look forward to your future post.

A Cool
