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 have anxiety disorder, so yeah. Sometimes I bear too much guilt, so there's pain too. Depression occasionally. Anxiety is the biggest problem for me. You can add me, but I'm not very initiative to talk, just to warn you. (I'm not selling myself as a pal very well, am I?)

    Hi, I have a panic disorder, with depression too which is connected to it, so feel free to add me :)
    Also, even though I have a panic disorder, it's not always panic attacks, sometimes it's really bad anxiety. Good job my GP is attractive with how often I see him!!!

    I have Panic Disorder and Bipolar I (predominantly mixed). I also have fibromyalgia, which they think is a result of my mental illness. I control my illnesses with (many) meds, clean, vegan eating, and lots of exercise. Feel free to friend me if you like :)
  • I have Fibro as well as D.I.D, C-PTSD, G.A.D & a whole other host of letters strung together. so yeah... I'm here add me if you like (can you add a note just saying you're from the MH group tho as my memory is awful and I won't remember who's who otherwise!)

    I suffer from varying degrees of depression, and anxiety. Please feel free to read my profile and add me if you would like to be friends! I try really hard to overcome my depression and anxiety. I'm winning right now, but that's not always the case. I wish you the very best!

    I've been recently diagnosed with PMDD (premenstrual dysphoric disorder). Been suffering severe depression / suicidal thoughts etc for nearly a year and sought help in March.. diagnosed and on Prozac for 3 months now.

    Would love more friends that truly understand. Some days I just can't do much but am a bit better with drugs working now.
  • I have anxiety and severe depression. It definitely makes being motivated hard sometimes. Feel free to add :) none of us are alone!

    aww, look at us, the Nut Job Club! all of you guys here, you guys are what makes me smile - we are in it together and we are HERE to SUPPORT each other! some need a bit more that others, but that is why we are all different - all of us are ready to lose a bit of weight, get a bit fitter, and talk with like-minded individuals.

    I guess my 'baggage' is depression (now off the pills and CBT, was on it for years), body dysmorphic disorder, have attempted to finish myself, have self harmed for years but 4.5 years clean, and used to have anorexia and bulimia through excessive exercise.

    So i am trying to do this well, trying to eat not too much and not too little, not to beat myself up if i don't do as i plan, and to just enjoy the community while i drop a bit of weight too.

    Feel free to add! and don't worry, i chat a bit but not huge amounts, i won't flood your wall but i will comment motivationally on things you post :)

    I'm right there with you!
    I have Borderline Personality Disorder, PTSD, GAD, Social Anxiety Disorder (I didn't know there were so many types!) Along with good old fashioned depression.

    I also have neuropathy and the curve in the spine of my neck is gone...
    It's a whole bag of fun.

    If you ever need support just let me know!

    I deal with anxiety on a daily basis, recurrent depressions (possibly bipolar 2) and an eating disorder. Add me if you want support - I can't promise that I'll accept you though, I have to be pretty careful with who I add, but you can always talk to me! :smile:

    I do suffer from anxiety. My official diagnosis, though, is Major Depressive Disorder w/ PTSD. I also have constant pain in my back. My mother has fibromyalgia, and I wonder if I have it too. Feel free to add me. I log in everyday... and I try to work through the pain. It gets so hard sometimes.
