So, uh, here I am.

Howdy folks.

I was warmly invited here by jj2, after he read my post in the Success Stories section.

Linkie if you wanna see:

So, me.

I'm 21. I have a variety of "issues." I've been diagnosed as PTSD and bipolar NOS, from the psych side of things. I live med-free, and I've been stable and happy for probably over a year now. I wouldn't say life is normal - mine never is - but there's a fine line between eccentric and crazy.

In addition, I have hyperlaxity (which is what doctors call you when you're so double-jointed that it actually stresses your joints), thoracic outlet syndrome (a type of RSI), and TMJ.

Basically, I'm pretty messed up for 21.

On rainy days, I limp like a pirate, and talk to thunderstorms.

Happy to be here.

Love,
Cassie

Glad to see you made it!!!
And let me tell you, your story just sent me in all directions. Sad & happy.

By the way, originally hubby found ECF and both of us used jj2. Not so much anymore since the only time he is here is when there's a need to visit the Modders Section and since he has more than a little more of the basic knowledge in how electrical things work, that is pretty rare these days. But if you run into some old post it could be him---just to let you know so you don't think I have a double personality.
In here I will guarantee you are talking to the "she" part of jj2.
Anyway, WELCOME to group therapy!!!
Well maybe not therapy but a good place to unload.

I loved your writing and your happy ending. I would love to read anything you write. By the way nicotine helped me through a few rough years, so I do understand. Good luck with the rest of your wonderful life. Micki
