MDJunction to me

jackie1979"MDJ is like a family to me where I can talk to others who understand how I feel. I can as group leader help others and support them and be there
for each other for the good and bad times. MDJ has helped me come to terms with my disability and be able to live my life and be positive. I just hope that I can be there for others like my friends on MDJ have been here for me.

This is another one of those "I cant be the only one, right?!" questions. When you get up in the morning do you almost get mad because you're awake? Wether its because you are in pain, dont feel rested, or whatever? I get up & I get so mad because hubby & daughter are in such good moods & I just want to bite their heads off! Even though they dont do anything wrong! I cant stand for them to say "Good morning" (whats so darn good about it?!), "How did you sleep?" (look at me, cant you tell?!), or "how are you?" (you want the truth?!). I even at one point told them when i got up dont talk to me until i talk to you & we'll all have better mornings! Its just something they dont understand, and I feel completely awful about!Sad
Where are we going and why am I in this basket?!!!

Be kind to me, I have a teenager!

I am like that but I just chalk it up to my not being a morning person. My husband and 2 of my daughters make me so mad because they are just too happy in the morning. I am also like that when I wake up from a map. I have an uncle that is so bad, that if I call and he is taking a nap, I would not go over there if I had to.

I am almost afraid of nights and first thing in the morning. If it is a rough night then it will definitly be a rough morning, and I hate the way I feel when that happens. It is almost like I have no control. So then I go from being scared to being pissed. Geez I hate this DD.

Hugs,

Jenn

I just want to let you all know that I am just like you, a regular person. I am not a doctor or a therapist, but I do promise to be there and listen as often as I can.
Hugs and Peace,
Jenn

I hate it when I wake up and I'm in super slow motion and my hubby is is warp mode. Lord I hate that. Here is sit with my head in my hand trying to decide if I want to go back to sleep and he's flittering around like a humminbird on speed. I feel like doing this to him.

LOL I have to take my time getting up too. God forbid if a bill collector call while I'm still asleep. You'd think they'd have me on a list of wait until later people.

The only thing that gets me out of bed faster than I want it the need to relieve my bladder.

Love,
Casty

This is too funny. My family has actually pretty much framed morning around me. I have coffee and snacks on and in my nightstand. My kids bring me cream first thing in the morning. I have a snack take my pills and drink my coffee while I watch the morning news. No one talks to or touches me, unless I have to get to the bathroom and need help, until my pills have kicked in. They go about there business and when I am ready after my stretching, I say good morning I am human now and then the day can begin. It is the only way it works other wise I come out fighting and everyone winds up having a bad morning. Everyone likes this system much better.
Favorite Poem :
It is such a relief when you first find out.
That the pain really does have a name,
And then you will ask (and everyone does),
"Just where can i place all the blame".
No matter the limits, no matter the pain,
There's no evil, cruel "Master Plan".
It just simply happens, It just simply is.
You adapt, and you change what you can.
But even with the knowing the best and the worst,
All the pitfalls the future could hold,
You still have a choice, you quit or you fight.
You determine the story that's told.
And every small step that we take, my dear friends,
Each battle that we slowly win,
Just credits the love and the caring we share
With the FMily that we call our friends.

Between me and my oldest daughter, mornings are the when we get into arguments. The bad thing is when you think about them later in the day, they were stupid fights.

I used to fight like that with my older daughter, if I heard "Mom, just don't say anything," one more time I was gonna blow! She would always apologize later tho. She is really a good kid.

IKP sound like a wonderful system! Good team work!

Love,
Casty
