Dear Gail, I was told that you do not get Stills from anyone family or

otherwise,but if anyone in your family has/had an autoimmune disease you could

be pre-disposed to it.I just had a big drop in my blood pressure when someone

mentioned abuse as a child.I was abused,and I can understand how we could bottle

up everything from childhood,since we were too young to know how to get away

from it. Then when it's " safe " we get some kind of autoimmune disease.Just a

thought.

Elly,

I never thought of the connection of abuse as a child. I suffered emotional

abuse from the time I was 5 until I was 14. It was by my classmates at the

Public School I went to K through 8th. I then open-enrolled to another school

(Pettisville happened to be a rival school too) for High School, and that was

when I really started to develop my self esteem. I had friends at Pettisville

from 4-H and other county activities. While I was not the most popular person in

school, I did have several friends that I hung out with while in High School. I

lost touch with almost all my high school classmates when we went on to College.

I was the only one to go to The Ohio State University because it was to big and

most of my classmates were afraid to go to a big school like Ohio State. They

never did understand how I thrived and flourished at Ohio State.

I had suffered severe depression from the emotional abuse even to the point

where I almost committed suicide when I was 12. My dog at the time, Blackie

(short for Black Midnight the III) saved me by coming and taking away the pills

I was staring at trying to decide to end my life. After that I decided I had a

reason to live, my dog. Then once I switched schools I became friends with

women who were strong Christians, and they showed me what true friendship was. I

had always thought I was a Christian because I went to church and believed that

Jesus Christ died on the cross. But I never truly understood what it meant to

accept Jesus as my personal Savior until the end of May in 2003.

Anyway after accepting Jesus as my savior I overcame my depression problems for

almost 2 years without medications. By the time I needed depression meds I was

suffering from Still's.

Back when I was growing up no one talked about bullying and the emotional abuse

that children can do to each other. I never realized that what I suffered as a

child was emotional abuse and depression. The first time I heard the words

emotional abuse associated with how I was treated at Fayette was when the

Pettisville Board of Education voted to accept me as an open-enrollment student

due to special conditions. The Special Conditions sited was that I was suffering

from emotional abuse and had suffered some physical abuse during my 8th grade

year when I no longer had my older brother around to protect me. Also the kids

that were abusing me, their parents were on the School Board. If I reported the

treatment I was the one who was punished and then I just got worse from the

children. In elementary school the principal knew I was having trouble with one

of my teachers (who also emotionally abused me because she was friends with the

parents of the kids who abused me) and kids in

my class. So if I ever got to the point I couldn't take it anymore or if I felt

I was being treated unfairly by the teacher I was allowed to walk out of the

classroom pretty much anytime I wanted and go to the principals office with my

school work and I could stay there and do my work until I was able to face the

teacher again or until the school day was over.

By the way not many people know what I went through as a child. My parents knew

I was not happy, but they also knew that if we tried to do anything to stop it,

things only got worse. Sadly as a child I was jealous of my brother because he

was popular and didn't have to suffer the abuse I did. What I didn't realize

until he went away to college was how much he protected me from being abused

even worse. My Brother graduated High School in 1993 I was a 7th grader. My 8th

grade year was the worst year I had as far as treatment by the kids, but I had

teachers who saw what was going on and did their best to protect me by allowing

me to go to their room during study hall or at lunch time. I was also allowed to

use the brand new thing we had installed called the Internet. I was one of 3 8th

graders allowed to surf the Internet. The Internet back then was nothing like it

is today.

Elly you might have hit on something that might be one more thing that could fit

into a mix of what actually causes Still's. I am one that believes it is a

combination of factors. I know that before I had Still's I had 3 other

Auto-Immune problems (Asthma, Allergies, Endometriosis). I didn't know

Endometriosis was an Auto-immune problem until I started doing research on

Auto-Immune diseases and disorders.

I will talk to you later I have to go.

I used to teach and kids are mean. Very, very mean. I am just

horrified at the treatment you received by the adults in the

situation. I am so glad you were able to move schools and make

friends and had your trustworthy dog to help you. We are blessed to

have you and I sure do thank Blackie for that.

Hey ,

 I read your post and Im very sorry what you went through as a kid. Man kids can

be so mean and adults can just look the other way nuts!

    My name is and I noticed you were saying that you believe that

Stills has strange factors I agree but I was amazed at your history. I also had

very bad allergies and Endometriosis and it was very hard living with this for

many years. I ended up having a partial Hysterectomy a year ago because my

periods were so bad and I had fibroid Tumors I was done having kids so I had my

uterus removed. Soon after that, that's when it all started with the thyroid

problem 3 months later,  and then the Stills. How long have you had Stills?

I had 3 days last week that I was on top of the world no pain tons of energy I

thought maybe It was gone for good then it started yesterday up again. Is

this normal? This is the first time I ever had  any good days with no symptoms

it was great. I really thought maybe this was behind me. I did things I hadn't

done in months. I worked in the yard I cleaned the house with no getting out of

breath and all it was just wonderful! Then after my Metho on Sunday I went down

hill again weak and swallon and I just could feel it coming back...Last

night  just to wake in crippling pain in my arms and legs and neck. I freaked

out and started to cry because it was back! I was so scared I had never been

that stiff too I could hardly move ugh! Well there goes my good and hello bad

again. Im off Pred and not wanting to return to it. I took so Alive today and

its helping a bit. My fingers are so stiff tonight its hurts to type so Im going

to fo for now.

I would like to hear from you. Lets talk.

I was the only one to go to The Ohio State University because it was to big and

I had suffered severe depression from the emotional abuse even to the point

where I almost committed suicide when I was 12. My dog at the time, Blackie

(short for Black Midnight the III) saved me by coming and taking away the pills

I was staring at trying to decide to end my life. After that I decided I had a

reason to live, my dog. Then once I switched schools I became friends with women

who were strong Christians, and they showed me what true friendship was. I had

always thought I was a Christian because I went to church and believed that

Jesus Christ died on the cross. But I never truly understood what it meant to

accept Jesus as my personal Savior until the end of May in 2003.

school work and I could stay there and do my work until I was able to face the

teacher again or until the school day was over.

By the way not many people know what I went through as a child. My parents knew

I was not happy, but they also knew that if we tried to do anything to stop it,

things only got worse. Sadly as a child I was jealous of my brother because he

was popular and didn't have to suffer the abuse I did. What I didn't realize

until he went away to college was how much he protected me from being abused

even worse. My Brother graduated High School in 1993 I was a 7th grader. My 8th

grade year was the worst year I had as far as treatment by the kids, but I had

teachers who saw what was going on and did their best to protect me by allowing

me to go to their room during study hall or at lunch time. I was also allowed to

use the brand new thing we had installed called the Internet. I was one of 3 8th

graders allowed to surf the Internet. The Internet back then was nothing like it

is today.

Elly you might have hit on something that might be one more thing that could fit

into a mix of what actually causes Still's. I am one that believes it is a

combination of factors. I know that before I had Still's I had 3 other

Auto-Immune problems (Asthma, Allergies, Endometriosis) . I didn't know

Endometriosis was an Auto-immune problem until I started doing research on

Auto-Immune diseases and disorders.

I will talk to you later I have to go.
