    • Close Depression in Children

      My son is 5 years old and was just diagnosed with Bi-Polar disorder. I am really concerned they want to start him on meds and I am really uncertain... I am trying to do some reseach & was hoping to find others in this situation... to get support.

    • Close Parenting Big Kids (5-8)

    • Open Sexual Abuse

      I am a 26 y.o. adult survivor of sexual abuse. I was molested by my step brother as a adolescent and sexually abused by a "boyfriend" later in my later teens and early adulthood, it has taken years to be able to talk about it and how to cope with it without allowing it to control my life.

      Mainly fleeing the situation but the anxiety and panic attacks still happen. I have relocated several times with no real success.

      I am doing this now... which is helping, but sometimes it's like reopening pandora's box.
    • Open Diets & Weight Maintenance

      I am a 26 year old mom, my son was recently diagnosed as bi-polar and I have gained so much weight recently. My mother committed suicide a few years back and I have gone from a size 12 to an 18 in about 3 years... I would love to lose the weight, but can't find the encouragement and support... everyone always says I look great & I wear it well, but it's not who I am.

    • Open Rape

      I am a survivor of sexual molestation and rape. It's been a rough road, but as an adult I am trying to learn to deal with the past and recover so that I will truly be a survivor rather than a victim.

    • Open Miscarriage

      Well I recently found out I was pregnant, called my OB for an appointment which was 5 weeks out. Four weeks later, (around 9-12 weeks) I wind up in the ER- the doctor informs me it was a belited ovum- if that is how you spell it & that I would have to have a D&C to get rid of it. I have never in life felt so empty...

      Treatments

      D&C Working / Worked
      Well it's been a week since I found out the baby was inside me but not viable and living- they did the D&C on Friday & I am still a bit emotional, the bleeding is minimal now so I hope it helps.
