Why wear a ribbon?

"I werar the purple ribbon to show my support for all we fibros endure together--..." (iteach)

MDJunction to 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.

I believe it has also offered me the chance to reach out and help others. A simple Thank you, is all that I have to offer, to this site and to the wonderful people here.

I am starting to fel like whats the point? I am SOOOOOOOOOO tired an sore and I have to be to work in two hours. I know thats going to suck. I called my doctor but I honestly dont forsee them calling me back before I leave. Whatever, another crappy day in my crappy life. Why I bother with it is beyond me. I don't want to feel like this anymore!

Foxy,

Stay strong. We all feel like giving up sometimes. I know I do. But there is a reason we are here. Even if we are not aware of it! Promise me you will hang in there until this feeling passes or get some help!!! Sending you lots of hugs and prayers right now.

Tami

Don't give up! I know it's hard, but I promis someone will help you. I have faith that we all get what we need to get us through eventually. Please stay strong and know that we are praying for you.

You need to let this pain doctor know your not doing good wih the patcha and tell him that you would like to move on to something else.

Keep us posted on how it goes, and I'm here for you if you need someone to talk to.

It is tuff! Life gets pretty crappy sometimes! Actually, it's crappy a LOT!!!

Just tell yourself... I AM STRONG! I'M A SURVIVOR!

Whenever I feel like giving up- I tell myself that. AND that no one could raise my daughter better than myself. heeeheeee So I 'have' to be here! My hubby couldn't do near as good of a job as I do! So remember- your teenager needs you!

We're here for ya! So if you need to talk some more before work, during work, or after. Lean on us. We can't do much else. But it's great to have each other.

Hang in there, and "try" and have a good day.

Amy

I didnt mean to worry anyone. Here I go again doing somting wrong. I am sorry. I was just saying things that I needed to get out of my head that I really didnt want my husband to have to hold on to like always. Next time I wont post it. I apprecate your support....all of you but now I am worried that the cops are going to show up at my door any minute. When your quality of life droups like this dont the rest of you feel like why bother any more?? And the fact with my daughter, she is so let down by me most of the time.....But really I just needed to get it out of my head so I wasnt thinking about it constantly. Now I feel like I shouldnt have.

I think it's a bad reaction to this patch. Please call your doctor and tell them that this patch is changing your mood terribly and causing you depression! You know you need to be here and I think this medcicine is not good for you, you need to get into a doctor today! They need to get you off the patch and on something different!

It's ok. Foxy. We were all just concerned about you. Glad you are ok. And know there are people who care. You did not do anything wrong. You posted you feelings and we all responded to let you know we care.
