Close Bipolar Disorder
I have been through 29yrs of physical , mental, emotional and sexual abuse. I have been in many car wrecks, I have had my run in's with the law (I was not always the one in trouble). I have moved over 100 times and only lived alone for short periods of time. I have been attacked in my car and my home by strangers, many times. I have had supervisors at work attack me. I feel like I have a sign on my head that says abuse me.. I don't have anyone to talk to openly about my problems.

Close Chronic Pain
I have been treated for many problems (such as: fibromyalgia, arthritis, disc disease, bi-polar,depression, anxiety, etc) for aprox. 13yrs now. I have no insurance, so my treatment is limited. I filed for disability but that could take a while. I'm trying to work part time to support myself but it is so hard. I feel alone. I want to give and recieve support.

Open Pregnancy
I am 41yrs old and pregnant the first time.I went to the ER for bleeding in my urine and told we were loosing the baby and nothing could be done. to save it. I had a follow up appoint ment each week for two weeks. This last one I found out my HGB blood level was still going up so the baby is still growing. The last ultra sound showed my uterus to be empty. I am told that I will have a different ultra sound next week to find the baby, it is someplace else. I'm about 8-10weeks.
Open Personality Disorders
Type: Schizotypal Personality DisorderI have known for many years I am different than many people that I come into contact. Im 41yrs old and my life is still a mess.

I feel like I know everything that is going to happen, and I can't stop it or change it. It kills me that I can't heilp. Im tired of doctors, and nurses, and waiting rooms, and pills and excueses, bills, and etc.
