Why wear a ribbon?

"I wear this ribbon because I have Fibromyalgia, chronic pain and I am a domestic..." (merlin96)

MDJunction to me

"I have been struggling with Fibromyalgia, Bipolar, Anxiety, Post traumatic Syndrome for quite some time and pretty much going it alone. I stumbled across MDJunction by accident. I stayed in the shadows and just watched for four days and then I joined, feeling relieved and excited to have found a safe place with alot of folks that I could relate to . It's proove to be medically and emotionally
helpful to me and now I can't go a day without coming in at least 4 or five times a day! I Love my family here.

I keep thinking meds will start working well/things will start to get better/flares will happen less often-but it's not. This site is awesome just to finally see that other people are going through the same symptoms, emotional feelings/etc.

Staying positive everyday is a very important goal of mine. I try not to allow myself to let my kids get a sense of just how much pain I'm in but some days there just isn't hiding it. I'm very blessed to have found such a support group as this one because we are truly here for each other. Here's a hope for better days ahead and leaving the pain behind. Take care.
