Why wear a ribbon?

MDJunction to me

mabri"When I was diagnosed about 18 months ago with fibromyalgia, I didn't know where to turn. I got on my computer and looked for a support group where I could talk to other people with the same disease and get some help...Information, suggestions, mostly just what I can do now that I have this.....disorder/disease/syndrome...I didn't even know what to call it. I found MDJ, and yes, there was a support group for fibro. I started a post, and figured I would never get an answer. However, very quickly I was welcomed in, and became really involved in the group. I received help, support, friendship and the feeling of being truly cared about by these strangers who had become like family to me. Now, I have been here for about a year and a half...I have become a group leader, and love every minute of it. It is so wonderful to be able to help others. I still receive help and answers from the members in this group. The fibromyalgia is where I go to help, support, listen, care and even laugh. I don't know what I would do without this group."

Honey, when something like that happens our bodies, minds can't deal with the stress of it all. Please don't start injuring. Please find someone you can work through this with. Someone you can talk to. Do you have. Therapist? I would really recommend getting one.

I'm sorry that happened to you. I wish you luck in recovering. There are several groups here that you might want to join.

Princess Lainey

Lamictal 200mg
Risperdal 1.5mg
Trazadon 100mg
Klonapin 1mg
Lexapro 20mg
Wellbutrin 150mg

Can you make a mantra for yourself? Mine is, "I'm safe, I'm an adult, I'm healthy, I'm happy" Your fear is very real, but you are SAFE now. You are stronger than you were when the attack happened. Don't be afraid to reach out to in person support groups too. Do you have a support system? Family or friends that know what you've been through? I have a lot of respect for you. When I was raped I didn't have the courage to tell someone about it until years later. You are stronger than you think.
