    • About Me

      I've lived in Michigan all my life and truly love it here! I'm currently living with my boyfriend of almost a year. I suffer from all sorts of things - allergies, asthma, bipolar disorder, anxiety, lactose intolerance, etc. It makes life ...well... interesting, I suppose.

      From ak17 January 25, 2008

      May God bless you and keep you in perfect peace. Here are some encouraging bible verses to uplift you. Remember, faith moves mountains and you can get through anything in the name of Jesus. The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? Psalm 27:1 KJV Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the Lord. Psalm 31:24 KJV But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, "With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible." Matthew 19:26 KJV For thou wilt light my candle: the LORD my God will enlighten my darkness. Psalm 18:28 KJV I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears. Psalm 34:4 KJV For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. 2 Timothy 1:7 KJV Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee; he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved. Psalm 55:22 KJV I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. Philippians 4:13 KJV But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:19 KJV Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1 KJV

      Type: Loss of a Relative

      I've had a lot of loss in my life. I lost my mamaw when I was four years old. I lost my father when I was eight years old. I lost my papaw on my 16th birthday. I lost my best friend/my grandpa ten years ago. I lost my grandma this past year on my 35th birthday. I can't get over the loss of my grandparents.

    • Close Anger Management

      I have a lot of angry outbursts. I think they're partly due to the fact that I haven't processed my grandma's death yet. She died on my birthday in August of 2007.

    • Open Bipolar Disorder

      I've been diagnosed with bipolar disorder, but I haven't found a way to control it yet. Medication can be too expensive and therapy didn't seem to help. I'd love to share with others who suffer from this disorder along with me.

      Treatments

      Celexa Not Working
      Celexa didn't have any effect on me at all.
    • Open Personality Disorders
      Type: Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD)

      I believe I suffer from Borderline Personality Disorder, although I've never officially been diagnosed. I have nearly every symptom. The doctors think I'm bipolar, but I often find I'm closer to the BPD symptoms than the Bipolar ones.

    • Open Anxiety

      I have anxiety nearly every day of my life. Often, I don't know exactly where it's coming from.

      Type: Adult Asthma

      I've had asthma for about five years now and it's progressively getting worse.

      I used to LOVE milk and cheese would enjoy tons of it. Now I can't enjoy either without bloating, gas, and pain. :(

      Treatments

      Avoid Certain Foods / Chemicals Somewhat Helpful
      Lactaid Somewhat Helpful

      Physical Therapy Somewhat Helpful
      It took the pain away, but my numbness is still there.

    • Open Bisexuality

      I'm in a happy relationship with my boyfriend of almost a year, but I've always found myself sexually attracted to both sexes and wonder if I might be bisexual.

    • Open Separation Anxiety

      I have severe separation anxiety that, I think, comes from losing my father at a very young age.

    • Open Diets & Weight Maintenance

      Treatments

      South Beach Diet Working / Worked
      It definitely worked for me, my mom, and my dad. I lost 24 lbs! I need to go back on it again and I'm finding it difficult to do so. :(
    • Open Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder

      Sydney72 hasn’t entered any details for this support group.
    • Open Agoraphobia & Social Anxiety

      I have severe social anxiety. I can't even make a phone call without having some sort of panic attack. I've lost a lot of friends because I never return calls or call someone when they ask me to do so. It's extremely painful for me to be looked at also. I always feel like people are judging me. I hate living this way.
