51 yrs old on disability for 10 years.....fibro, depression,ptsd and I am lonely. So my friend you are not alone.

It's a long boring road, while everyone else works.

I hope you find some companionship here in a group of like minded individuals such as yourself. Hugs

Hello, I see notifications, don't know what to do with them, lolol! Computers, oh boy. Or rather websites, can be hard to follow. Oh ok, MAYBE it's the operator!

"Troll" might be one of the most radically changed meanings in my personal vocabulary. In the first digitally integrated networks (internets) I worked in the 70's, "trolling" was an unofficial name for checking the circuits. I still can't figure out what "A Troll" is, even though I have been called such by more than one troll patrol.

Leaving language weirds aside. . . I sure hope it's okay to participate in more than one forum here. I have more than one dx and I not only participate in all my personal dx forums, I participate in several of my family dx forums, as well. I haven't been troll patrolled for it, yet. Yet. The troll patrols are even scarier than the alleged trolls on my computer screen.

Hope you find the confidence and comfort to open up here, Shelli. Welcome to our healing community.

P.S. Click your avi icon next to the notifications circle. It gives you a fairly simple options shortcut menu.

Yeah. It is a lonely road.

If I didn't have art and music, I probably would have found a tall bridge long ago. Giving up on humanity and becoming a hermit has helped, but it's still not a quality existence.

I don't have money for arts, nor am I talented in this manner. I do garden. Camping/summer activities. HATE ME SOME WINTER! But can't plant till @ mid May. I love love love sunshine and children. Attempting to become foster parents. I had 1 daughter before coming out as lesbian, ALWAYS wanted more. We are expecting our first grandchild in August 2017. Two surgeries to lift her uterus, so it's a bit high risk pregnancy. PRAY FOR MY DAUGHTER AND MY BABY BEAN.
I also DX in 2009....... Yes get used to being alone. No family in NM cares for us, like they did in Co. Really selfish & petty people.
We are attempting to become foster parents-adoptive to a couple of older kids, whom need love n stability, and a forever place to call home.
I grew up in Iowa watching a show called Kids are people too.
Children should not be abused!!!!!!!

Well I did repeat myself, lol....... Sorry

Disability is lonely. I hope the birth goes smoothly.
