Hi Serenitee,

I was just reading your signature. You sure have been through a lot health wise. I just want to commend you on going through all that and still being able to give advice and be so kind to people. Keep up the good work.

Hugs, Karen

Yea you mentioned it. And I ordered it the day you did from amazon. I don't have it yet but when I do I'll read it at every opportunity I can.

I'm just not good today :(

Something really upset me today. My doctor thinks I have body dismorphic disorder. I tried yelling my mum. She was quite dismissive. It's like she doesn't get how bad I am. Really she does not know how I am and if I try to explain she just says " oh your not like it ALL the time, u just have bad days" or just Balzac over the subject. It really as if she doesn't care you know. I tried to talk to her properly but when I got a cold response instead of support... I couldn't keep my tears in. So just went to bed and cried :(
And that is why I feel alone. Yet again I want to disappear off the face of the planet and I'm starting to think I'll end up pushed to the point where I'll just think....

Whether or not your mother recognizes your condition is irrelavent. You need to focus on you, not what your mom thinks. Yes we want support and need it, but if you can't get any from friends or family, why not try counseling. It really helps. It is just like talking here except you have a professional talking with you. You have to learn to accept what the diagnosis is and work with it. You will probably get different meds, if you haven't already. Or do you take meds?

We have to change our way of thinking in order to be happy an have a fullfilling life. Maybe you expect too much in some areas and not enough in others. Make your health top priority now. Keep up with your doctor and what they want you to do. Did they say anything pertaining to medications? Let us know what is the next step.

Hugs, Karen
