My friend ask me to support her. So, that’s what I am doing.

I saw this website advertised on another online community, and I wanted to see what it was all about. I really enjoy connecting with people who are struggling or have struggled with the same things I have. I hope that I can be a helpful part of this group.

I live in Central FL and have recently been re-diagnosed from Clinically Depressed to BiPolar Disorder. I’m learning how to correctly handle my condition and find it’s best to have people with the same conditions who I can talk to.

hi there, i work with the careplace team. i think careplace is awesome. i hope it will really help people to share, support eachother and learn. we can all use support and understanding and it is so important for all of us who have experienced difficulties to have a safe and informative forum in which to do so. thanks for visiting - it is really rewarding for all of us to see people reaching out to eachother - it is what careplace is all about.

Life is about health, family and friends, but sometimes its hard to keep focus on what is most important

Hi this is mem (mem1ocd)  I see my first message posted 3 times,  don’t know how that happened, maybe its a ocd trait my computer picked up from me?   10:30 last night I was re arranging my furniture.   Its part of my ocd/order thing and it has been pretty bad lately.   In the last say 10 days or so I have done this at least 5 times not to mention the smaller changes I do all the time with blanket throws and covers on my furniture.   But I also have chronic back pain because of degeneritive  disks in my lower back and scoleosis.   I just started phyisical therapy in my home but I need to stop this re arranging stuff.  Talk to my therapist about it when I saw him last Thursday.   This is the first time I have had to worry about my ocd causing me physical problems.      Thanks for listening       Mem
