Yup. From one type A to another; I think that info. is exactly right. Of course, I never used to think of myself as a perfectionist because I let my house get messy and my classroom gets piled with stacks. But, when it comes to something that is important to me, I practically hurt myself getting it right. Have you noticed how many of my posts say "edited?" That's because I look back and think, "I could have said that better." Along the same lines, I've read that most people with fibro. are also people pleasers. We're the ones always wanting to help everyone else, even at our own expense. Does that sound familiar to anyone? Maybe that's why we're such good support for each other. Who cares that what I need right now is a hot bath and bed... so and so needs to hear something positive from me.  |
"When I first came to MDJ, I was in a very dark place, and feeling quite alone, I don't know how I found this site, but I have been very grateful ever since, all of you have offered insight to the illness of Bipolar and the other things going on with me, being here has allowed me to find friends, and to feel safe in discussing things that I would never have shared before.
