I guess I'd better introduce myself first. My name is Amy and I am a Survivor.
I am a chronic pain survivor. I deal daily with chronic pain that is often completely debilitating. I have been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and Hypermobility Syndrome, which is possibly Hypermobility Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. Today I visited the physical therapist for an evaluation. He said that if I started out in the PT room we'd be doing more harm than not. So...I am going to do water therapy until my joints are strong enough to use out of the pool. Yay! I'm very excited to finally get to do this.
I am mental illness survivor. I have the diagnosis of bipolar disorder. That means that while everyone has ups and downs in life, mine are extreme to the point where the greatly interfere with my life. Working for years at it, my bipolar is pretty much under control, though I tend to be depressed.
I am an abuse survivor. I have been emotionally, physically, and sexually abused in my life.
I am incredibly honest and I welcome comments. My blogs will usually be longer, but today I just wanted to introduce myself a bit and to post some great links.
