I have to deal with all of these on a daily basis and it would be great if I could have more friends that have the same type of issues. Especially people who deal with pain on a day to day basis. I need more support and motivation for when I have bad days. Please add me if you do and also if you don't. I need more friends in general! Thanks!

I suffer from anxiety and have other mental health problems also. Have suffered both depression and severe long term pain (car accident) in the past. Feel free to add me if you like.
Also there are a couple of mental health groups on here as well where you might find more like-minded folks.

Yup, anxiety here. And I just joined last week so I only have one friend. I'll take more! I also have arthritis everywhere because I have limited scleroderma- if I don't have a headache then something hurts. Feel free to add me, I give good sympathy!0

I have anxiety/panic disorder.
I also have a bone cyst in my right leg, while it does not hurt constantly when it does hurt it hurts. If I do too much stuff (such as when I played soccer or ran in track) it would hurt. Or even just a full day of walking I would get pains (like at cedar point in sandusky, oh.. its an amusement park) to the point where I start walking with a limp and just want to stop.
we're already MFP, but on some stuff I do know where you are coming from!0 -
I suffer from off again, on again depression and have recently developed some anxiety issues. Feel free to add me!
Also.... What are some of these groups named??? I'd be interested in joining too!0 -
I have suffered from anxiety and depression a great deal. I am on meds now to help but it still can be difficult at times! If you need any support, you add me! I just started myfitness pal today and have found the information and people to be quite helpful!0

I have anxiety/panic disorder and costochondritis. When both are driving me crazy it feels like my world is caving in.0

I have PVNS, a rare knee condition that caused tumors in my left knee and thigh. I had surgery in November that left me with atrophied muscles and nerve damage. I have consistent pain and walk with a limp. It makes exercising hard but the exercising is what is going to help my leg recover in the long run.0

Hey! I've been diagnosed with both depression and anxiety.
I sure don't let it get to me, though.
Well, when I can help it.0 -
I have a very rare genetic bone disease called Multiple Congential Osteochondromatosis or Hereditary Multiple Exostoses (it's so special it has 2 names). Basically I have bone and cartilage tumors on every joint in my body. I have had major orthopedic surgery many times, and can only look forward to more in the future.
I've also been diagnosed with Clinical Depression and Chronic Fatique Syndrome.0 -
i have generalized anxiety disorder, manic depression, and im a hypochondriact... AND PEOPLE WONDER WHY I LIKE TO DRINK??? LOL just kidding, but i was prescribed lexepro, and it seemed to help alot... i do not take the meds anymore, and my symptoms do come and go, but not very severe. you just have to find some coping skills that work FOR YOU! there are ways to control your symptoms, it just takes time! good luck to you!0

I was also injured in a car accident and have PTSD. Joy of joys right. I'm learning to take it step by step and one day at a time. Even if somedays the only step is getting out of bed.0

Wow, thanks guys. It definitely makes me feel better to know that I'm not alone. Sometimes it just feels like some people don't understand.0

Feel free to add me! I was diagnosed with depression and generalized anxiety order last summer. I am 28 and dealt with a lot over the past 5-6 years. I am on meds (generic zoloft 50 mg) but am working my way off them by my 30th birthday next year. My anxiety/depression is mostly situational due to stress with grad school but now I am working toward a new level in my life, I am starting to feel more positive about my goals (especially seeing my fitness progress) and am learning to have a better grip on reality and life. I am more than happy to support anyone who needs some encouragement or simply a virtual ::hug::0

Hi everyone. It's awesome to be here! I've been diagnosed with severe depressive disorder and anxiety as well as osteoarthritis and sarcoidosis. I'm 51 and have already had a hip replacement and will probably have to have the other one replaced at some point. It somewhat limits me on exercise but as long as I don't do any high impact stuff, I'm usually ok. I take zoloft, welbutrin xl and neurontin and they really do help. My Dr has tried weaning me off of them one at a time but I totally go wacko fast. I've pretty much accepted the fact that I'll probably always have to be on these meds as I've been on them for about 14 years since my parents passed away. I've just started back on MFP 11 days ago but I'm really taking it serious by joining groups, getting involved with message boards and finding friends. I'm hoping that when I lose all my weight (because i'm going to do it this time with a little help from my friends) I'll feel so great, I'll be able to get off all or most of meds (I also take high blood pressure and high cholesterol meds). Please feel free to friend me. I could use your support and will certainly give it too!0
