MDJunction to me

saralaurie"In the 3 months I have been with MDJunction I have developed a sense of calmness. I now friends who do not judge me because I have been a mental mess at times. It is such a good feeling to have friends I can tell my deepest thoughts and always get back to me with their support. I have never seen a therapist for long periods of time. Right or wrong, this is the best therapy possible for me. Thanks Roy for getting this up and running and making such a difference in my life. Sara" (saralaurie)

What's going on here? We used to be super active in this group......what do you all need/want in order to fully come back to us? Or is it a good thing that there's not a lot of posts? Does that mean that you HAVE gotten what you needed from the group, and now your off on your healing journey? I just know this group is quickly losing ground activity wise, and if it's a good thing i'm all for it, but I just want to make sure that everybody is getting what they need from us, and that we are doing our best to create the supportive healing enviornment we've tried our damndest to build. I, the leaders of this group need some feedback here, so please respond.

I think thats the answer for the most part. Smile... Its good to get away, not be reminded everyday about what happen and give your self lots of room to heal.

I think in this group it's a place to come for healing and move on... To come back and check in when you feel a little insecure or to show love and support to others who you understand their pain. I would think inactivity at times is a good thing. Less people hurting Smile

IMO, the purpose of MD Junction in general is for support for healing when you need it and that should not be all the time. I am going to be honest, in a group likes this, these stories are hard to read. It hurts me to my soul to see that so many of us have gone through hell and back. Sometimes I need to get away in order to be the best group member I can be. On a personal level, I have been sick lately, so now I have to get back in the swing of things.

I am glad this group is here to give us the support we need wether

its daily or every once in a while, its just so good we have a safe place to go where we are understood and supported.

My mom use to say God dont like ugly and he aint to fond of pretty. Wow that speaks loudly to me.

What we go through in life dont dictate who we are going to be or who we are only we have the control over our lives to do that. Never give up and always follow your dreams.

I am not a doctor and my advice is purely from my own experiences. I will always be here for you all if you need me just pm me anytime.

I have been very busy dealing with my life issues, as well.

If you have read my journal lately, I've been going thur appt. after appt. after pain after anxiety. Also, it's difficult right now for me to share with the group what's going on because I have been going on other groups and not getting replied to, and I am still sensitive to that.

I can be more supportive when I am not in too much physcial pain or worried so much about what is going to happen to me moment by moment.

I do miss you guys very much.

I want to try to be here more now.
