MDJunction to me

Hazeldee"MDJunction means that I no longer have to feel like I am the only person in
the world with pericarditis. It means that I can talk to others who know
how stressful and how painful having pericarditis can be. It means that I
connect with others to discuss treatments that have or haven't worked for us, so that we have a leg to stand on. I think that having my friends at
MDJunction has allowed me to better mentally and emotionally process my
diagnosis and what it means to me. I feel so lucky to have this community
available to me. I use MDJunction as a way to use my experience to help
others. Reaching out to help others is the only solace I have found since
being diagnosed with pericarditis.

A little about me: Diagnosed with bipolar II disorder in 2000 I fought hard for six years to regain my good mental health. I have been stabilized and high functioning for close to two years. This disease cost me dearly. I lost my spouse of 20 years and custody of my precious children. My relationship with the kids is positive and they are the joy of my life. We have endured and overcome much together.

I am very pleased with my recovery but I am isolated and very lonely. I want to work but I have legal problems related to a psychotic episode which resulted in a house fire where I was a renter. I now have a felony conviction for arson, because there was no mental health court system and I needed treatment not prison time.

I would like to work in peer support and have had some interviews but no job offers. I have not been active in the mental health advocacy community but I really want to get involved.
