What a find this community is!
Since 1998 I have struggled with all sorts of psychiatric and orthopedic issues. Often I've felt so isolated, with no one to talk to who has experienced some of the things I have. Well...I will no longer be in the dark! I've signed up for half a dozen communities that relate to my current health. I look forward to seeing how others handle situations similar to mine, asking for advice and sharing my experiences when relevant. My biggest project going on is training a Psychiatric Service Dog (PSD) for myself. Polar is a 5 year old Pomeranian. Since August of 2009 I trained her on my own, and in March 2010 hired a dog trainer with a 30 year background in training seeing eye dogs and therapy dogs. I began after 18 months of research on PSD and am very glad I pursued this path. The benefits are already being reaped as I venture out more than I have in several years. I look forward to meeting new friends and learning more about myself, my options and being suppportive when I can. Dawn & Polar |

 Dogs are wonderful !  You've found a goldmine of wonderful support, information, and caring people! Welcome to NT - all the conditions you mentioned in your post have specific forums, including the service dogs!  Just ask if you need help finding your way around! Everyone here is so wonderful and down to earth. Like you, I felt pretty alone in my circumstances until I happened upon NT and all of a sudden it was like a got a whole BAGFUL of wonderful new friends! People who truly understand! It's amazing! Will be glad to get to know you ! Rae
