MDJunction to me

grandmasylvia"MDJ has been "a soft place to fall" for me as Dr Phil says. I have this very painful rare disease Dercum's Disease and take comfort in finding others here who share their knowledge and compassion. Many
members have helped me just by understanding my anguish and validating
my pain. We are working together to encourage research toward a cure.

A little about me: I'm Erin (or Irish, I really do answer to both). I'm Group Leader in Child Abuse Survivors and Bereavment. And i'm a survivor of Child Abuse and two sexual assaults, I have lost many of my family and friends, and I've dealt with anxiety since I was eight. I do love life most days and I do have the sparkle theory on life. I've been told I should be in a cartoon, but in my opinion it's so much more fun to be silly and to believe in things like leprechauns and unicorns than to be a grownup :P. Yes, certain parts of me will never grow up, but at the same time I don't want them to. The most balanced people are the ones that are still in connection with their inner children. So go play and sparkle and never stop being a child.....when you stop being a child you lose something special inside yourself.
