MDJunction to me

"All I can say is that this has been the best place ever. It has been six to seven months since I joined, and I have learned so much. I now believe in myself and accept myself on a completely different level. The people on MDJunction has been so supportive and accepting that I have been able to adopt it into my personal life. That has reduced a lot of stress in my life. Thanks to all." (bunny_fly)

 I'm fifteen years old and was currently diagnosed with FM ans CMP. I personaly believe I have had both for years now, but simply gone undiagnosed. I know adults who have FM, but since it is not as common in teens I have never met someone my own age with it. I hope I will be able to relate with people in this forum.

 Hi bubbly and welcome to the group! There aren't any members your age on here that I'm aware of...probably because as I write this, I'm in tears as Fibro is soo horrible in it's own...let alone to hit someone as young as you! It really breaks my heart to hear it!

But, it doesn't matter what your age is here...because we are all here for each other and age makes no difference to us. It might to you...I can see where you would want to have support from other people with Fibro a little closer to your age. You are the first of your age to register with the group but that doesn't mean you're any different than us! You're a Fibromite just like us and like I said, we're all here for each other.

You're gonna find some AWESOME support here, no matter what!

Please, don't be shy...join right in our discussions and post your own discussions. Ask your questions, cry your tears, laugh with us and vent with us cuz we do a lot of that here!

So, sit back, relax, kick yer feet up and post away girlfriend...

We're waiting!!!

 Hello bubbly dear welcome to our little group. I am so saddened to hear that you have been diagnosed so young. my youngest is also 15,well almost 16 as she likes to point out,I know how hard this must have hit you. Don't worry about your age or how you will relate to people here,we are all suffering the same disease and all that goes with it. We all are here to support you and each other however we can. Feel free to PM me anytime you want,you are going to love all the wonderful people here.
May the sun bring you new energies by day,
May the moon softly restore you by night ,
May the rain wash away any worries you may have,
And the breeze blow new strength into your being,
And then,all the days of your life,
May you walk gently through the world,and know it’s beauty and yours.
A Native American Blessing
