Hi Wendy, Sounds like you have a LOT on your plate… but it also sounds like your illnesses aren’t you whole life. Keep it up… [huggles] Karen On Mon, 30 Apr 2001 12:25:55 -0700, Wendy Johnston – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text -<kai…@ptialaska.net> wrote: >Well, I was in therapy for two years, still see the psychiatrist every >three months for med management.

Hello Wendy 
) Nice meeting you. Sounds like you have a lot of things to deal with, and that always sux. I hope you are feeling a little better in finding this group. I came here, a little while ago now, because I am dealing with my mums MPD/DID and I needed a place that understood the pain I feel. If it makes you feel any better, I am doing the same sort of thing as you, I usually only reply to people if I can lend some support, advice or just a hug, but I sometimes need to have a whinge too. Sometimes it can help if you just come here and tell everything on your mind then send it. People here take the time to read your posts and are always (well from what I have seen) very supportive of your feelings. Anyways, I just wanted to say hello, and to make you feel welcome here. ) *Hugs* Demon. p.s. Demon is just my nickname, I am a female and I don’t like biting people, lol.

Hi Wendy and welcome! You certainly do have a full house! What is it like where you live? I live in England. Hope this group is helpful to you. Take care, Erin. — Erin, e…@ukgateway.net

Well, I was in therapy for two years, still see the psychiatrist every three months for med management. I asked him last time for a solid diagnosis, he smiled and asked me what I thought, so I told him that I believe that I am a chronically depressed, agoraphobic obsessive/compulsive, anal retentive with borderline personality disorder and post traumatic stress disorder. He laughed, (a friendly sort of laugh) and said that I was right on the button. Yipee skipee. Guess I’ll be on my meds forever, which is hard to swallow (haha, no pun intended) but I am dealing with it. I also have a multitude of more physical issues which are debilitating, let’s just say my disability went through the first time! I live on an island in Alaska, I have 4 children, one of whom recently decided that she hates me (she’s 16) and went to live with her father in another state. However, my eldest daughter has her beau living here, so I still consider myself as having 4 kids. In addition to them I have 4 small dogs (they are pets first, but I am also gearing up to breed) my #1 daughter has a min pin, and I have been pet sitting a puppy for a woman who hasn’t called or come to pick her up, so I may also "have" this pup. Three cats, three birds, plants indoors and out. I have my hands full. I am pleased to find this group, there being strength in numbers and all that. I will probably lurk for a while, but I wanted to say "Hi" before I either post or comment on someone else’s post. TTFN! Wendy
