Guest guest Posted June 28, 2004 Report Share Posted June 28, 2004 Sorry having a brain scramble moment and i can't remember the people that were talking about the depression and crying that comes with having a dx. I think everyone can understand the big WOW moment of knowing what you finally have. When i first got my dx, i felt overwhelmed too. It was a big change from feeling like everything was in my head and i was going crazy to having 1 800 #'s that i could call and get information on this disease. Or to be able to come into a group like this and someone starts talking about something you just started to experience and you can say " oh ok someone else has this too, i am not imagining it. " Or to have pamphlets to hand to family members when they don't understand. There is a lot of information out there on the net, and yes some of it is all doom and gloom but there is also hope there too. Hope, in the form of the groups like this that are warm and welcoming and filled with lots of great positive information. I do like what someone said about in a weird way this disease was the best thing that could have happened that she takes time with her family, takes life one moment at a time and does the things that please her so she doesn't contribute to her disease by worrying about it. (sorry i don't remember who it was and i am paraphrasing) Take care of yourself _________________________________________________________________ Is your PC infected?
