Hello, I joined to meet people like myself and hopefully make friends. My life has changed so much since being diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease 7 years ago. People who I thought were my friends turned away from when I was diagnosed. Lately, I am feeling so depressed, lonely and bored because I am a person who craves people in my life. I am warm, kind, caring, thoughtful, compassionate, a good listener and honest. I also suffer with panic attacks when feeling overwhelmed. Hopefully some of you will become my friend.
