4 years ago today ....I made my first post on PC, recently diagnosed, scared, clueless and pretty dumb about mental health to be honest.
Wow....... I have learned a lot.. I have met amazing people here. More tears shed than I could count, hysterical fits of laughter and being silly. I'm very grateful that Docjohn saw a need for an online community like this and I stumbled across it when I was in desperate need ! To everyone that has cheered me on and taught me much .... You are fantastic  Ps : My name started out " Morethingswrong" All my friends here convinced me to change that negative nonsense!

I am soooo glad you joined, and good Lord was I ever so proud of you the day you changed your name!!! I remember it like it was yesterday, I was crying tears of joy.
I had joined just 2 months before you, yet I clearly remember how we immediately clicked. You have given so much here in the last 4 years, pearls of wisdom, cheerleading, and good old bluntass reality checks. So you've not only received help, but given immense amounts of it too. How many sticky situations haven't you seen me through now huh sis? Plenty I thank DocJohn for creating this platform, it gave me you. Happy PC anniversary hun!!!

I certainly appreciate your presence, having recently returned and posted a question.
In fact, you made me reflect on my own username, considering a change.

We don't know each other sooo well, but I have always admired your posts and appreciated the times you have responded to mine. The way in which you work with being bipolar is an inspiration! Thank you so much! S

I'm a little late too, but I wanted to say Thanks for all of your input on the forum. I will sometimes see you offering advice to others and I'll think "I should follow that advice myself". Congrats on four years!

I'm sure that Christina struggles with her own issues just like all of us here, but somehow she hides it to be so thoughtful and kind. That my friends is called compassion for the fellow human, and is something I wished I had more in me. If there is an award here that I could nominate her for, she's definitely got my vote.

You are great ~Christina! Thank you for helping me figure things out that I wouldn't have otherwise and thank you for all of your wise posts. I think you and I think a lot alike and I really appreciate you even though I'm relatively new here compared to you.

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