Roses Ablaze Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 Hi. I got here through a link in a thread at CrazyMeds Talk. My official diagnoses are chronic depression, ADHD, and OCD. I feel that I have a lot of traits in common with people with Asperger's and my therapist writes down my diagnosis as "anxiety" for insurance purposes. I'm taking Celexa, Klonopin, Lovaza, and a fuckload of vitamins (including SAMe and Methionine). I also have what my previous psychiatrist called "tic-like behaviors," but to my knowledge, I don't have any diagnoses to explain that one. Let's see...I've been hospitalized once and my foot is pretty much permanently in my mouth. I have a question, though. It says in the user agreement that this place isn't as snuggly as most support groups. I have never joined a support group before, so I don't know...does that mean you get slapped upside the head here when people feel that you need to be? I unintentionally piss people off a lot with stupid things I say... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olga Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 No no no no.....don't worry---we only bitch-slap people who deserve it! Rose, welcome to our friendly little nuthouse. Don't worry about how people will react, as long as you use common sense and a little courtesy. I think the difference between CB and other places on the internet is that people do speak directly here---they don't beat around the bush if they think you're being jerky or if you are doing self-destructive stuff. Cursing is fine, complaining about your doctor is fine---vent all you want about the IRS, your SO, the jerky lady in front of you at the supermarket. I'm glad you have read the rules---feel free to check out chat and the blog section. Lots of interesting people hanging around this joint. olga Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tryp Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 Welcome to CB I'm a pretty warm, snuggly kind myself, and I mostly fit in here. I've never really gotten bitch-slapped Actually, I think this place is a little warmer and snugglier than CM, personally. I've never been anywhere in my life where people got told as often as they get told over there. This isn't like that, in my experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
