I was diagnosed with Sleep Apnea about 4 years ago but managed to keep it at bay by losing weight. Unfortunately the weight has inexorably increased and so the Sleep Apnea has also. I have recently been referred for a sleep study followed probably by the fitting of a CPAP ‘device’.

I/ve have depression for over 15 years during which I raised 4 kids and a husband and was dead inside. Tried many medications, now have found a combination of wellbutrin and effexor that has been working for me during the last year which I have been taking them. I am sort of coming out of the coma I was in, I finally notice the flowers, nature’s beauty, and am laughing once in a while again. I need to talk to people who would understand the challenges I go through every day of my life. this sadness and desire to do NOTHING is like an addiction. everyday I wake up and have to force myself to live.

I have multiple chronic conditions & I am on disability; I worked my entire life & can’t get over feeling guilty for being on SSDI. I have: Addison’s Disease, Myasthenia Gravis, Bipolar Disorder-heavy on the depression,Autoimmmune Hypothyroid, Osteoarthritis, Osteoporosis, Migraine Headaches, Pernicious Anemia, Chronic hip-low back-shoulder & neck pain & high blood pressure & cholesterol.
I am 48 & have lived with many of these conditions for years; the Addison’s was diagnosed a year ago though the Dr’s think I had it longer but were missing because of the Myasthenia Gravis. It took me almost dying last summer to get the right diagnosis.It seem like I can’t find enough info
on the Addison’s.I’d like to connect with other people who may have Addison’s or Myasthenia Gravis or Bipolar or Chronic Pain. Also people suffering from multiple conditions,
such as I am.
