Lupus really giving me issues...
It's pretty much winter here already. High today is 38F. I've been in a horrible Lupus Flare since Saturday and I'm just feeling better …
I could hide the bipolar disorder but not the Lupus too. I've been sick with Lupus 7 years and not worked for over four yrars. I have 1 daughter, divorced, and 1 grandson. Before Lupus I was an independent successful professional single woman, working 50-60 hrs/week. I suffer from severe depression and anxiety and I have developed social anxiety and tend to seclude myself from people. I don't like who I am now, I'm a shell of the person I once was. I'm working on trying to develop a life without the structure of the professional business world. Starting over to make a life for myself!

I have a degree in decorating...I love nothing more than redecorating for a friend. Love to scrapbook, garden, read, philanthropic projects and oh yes...and cook with a friend! However the diseases have taken my interests away. MOSTLY THOUGH, I treasure the time with my daughter, Stacia (she's 28) and grandson, Tristen (now 3 and hoping the 3's will be easier than the 2's were LOL)! PICS BELOW...

thanks Sandra. It's just been one thing after another. I'm getting so tired of it all.
Thinking of you too, my friend. A couple of the people that I passed on Letter from God to really appreciated it. I also have another belief in why I send things, which I rarely do. If I bombard people with fwds, as my aunt sends, they will tend to just delete them b4 opening them...I sure do. Blessings xoxoxo
Hugs and love my dear friend...missed you
not that great. very stressed, and some physical ailments.
I tend to seclude myself, letting everyone think it is the Lupus, ashamed of being bipolar. I kept the BP disorder a secret since I was diagnosed at 31. But now the physical pain of the Lupus along with the mental demons is many days unbearable. I keep in touch w/my therapist and take my meds. However, some days they don't seem to work at all. There's a lack of joy along with the absence of energy and creativity. The constant pain has left me a shell of the person I once was.
I've been dealing with Lupus for 6 years now. It's been very dibilitating. I had to quit working over 3 years ago because my flares became so frequent and the pain and fatigue are extreme. As much as I want to be and as hard as i try...I'm not happy. I want to be happy again. I want to WANT to see people and socialize! I WANT to LIVE more of my life.
