I just wanted to say thanks. I've only been here a day and a half but I feel like I found a great, comfortable chair, a cup of hot tea, and some [your favorite snack here.]
You all understand. You understand tremors and exhaustion and frustration and irritability. You understand a pharmacy crew that knows you by name (or, one day, by voice on the phone, fa cryin' out loud.) You are probably the only people on earth who understand why my front-door light hasn't been replaced since it burned out...last spring. Some of you have a tougher road than I, and some, I hope, an easier one, but oh, man, am I glad you're here, and I'm here too. Thank you.

Junia,
I feel the same way. There are so many threads and posts that I have read that sound just like me on whatever given day. I really needed this resource. To be able to encourage on my good days, be encouraged on my not so good days, and post my scattered monologues at 2:00 in the morning is priceless. Even more priceless to know someone is up to read it :-) To know that there are really are others who 'live my normal' that happens to have a DSM code is a comforting feeling in the fact that I'm not so alone. I'm so happy that I stumbled across this resource.

I feel safe here, because people understand.
I can say that I once cried and curled up in a fetal position because the basement light was burnt out Most people would that is weird My family here thinks "yeah, I understand that, been there"

Exactly. Better to light a candle than curse the darkness, but if you can't find a candle, don't forget to curse the darkness anyway.

I feel the same way you do after just joining. I'm struggling with the diagnosis and feel like I'm the brink of a mixed episode or something else, and it's helping A LOT to read things here. Gives me hope at least. It's all brand new to me and weird and it's kind of a good thing seeing that wow, okay, lots of other people are dealing with ridiculously similar things I am.. Maybe there is something to this bipolar thing.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
