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.

First and foremost, this is a SUPPORT group. Many of us would even go so far as to say we are in a way "family" , we truely care about eachother here, and wish only the best for one another. No matter what modality you choose for treatment, be it antibiotics, natural, a little of both , prayer, or whatever it may be, it is all supported here.

WE have worked very hard at making this a unique site, very little drama, and we'd like to keep it that way. I think that's why this site works, and why people have gone to other sites, and have always come back here.

I am a group leader and moderator here, as is Julie, so if you have any questions or concerns you can PM us at anytime.

That being said, please read the following:

all information and opinions and facts are welcome, please do not take offense to what one person may say or not say, this is a site for help, and the more information we have here, the better for people. Not all people will do thier own research, and so they see something on our site and think it's law.

So ALL views are welcome, and not considered personal attacks on anyone, just different points of view and different sources of information, that way people in need of help can make an educated decision.

We do not need to turn a thread into a personal attack, we all can just simply share what information we have on that particular subject, sometimes it's hard to gauge a "tone" through email "posts" etc, so what may be intended to just be information, may be taken as a personal attack.

Let's give eachother the benefit of the doubt, and really just try to help eachother and provide information for eachother and those yet to find us here.

Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Wishing you all good health,

Jaime
