I'm not sure why I'm here
 

I'm not really even sure if I am allowed to be here. I wandered over from psych central, where I have existed for five years. I don't really have any claim to neurological disorders. Pretty much just depression, anxiety, and personality disorders, and the genes for schizophrenia (my brother died from it - suicide). I'm convinced that I also have a mild muscular dystrophy (minicore myopathy - my mother has it and my brother had it, etc., and it is a dominant gene so 50/50 chance), and also reynaud's disease. But these aren't critical concerns for me. I don't bother with going to doctors. It isn't worth that. I'm just a clutz and cold all the time, even in the summer if there is air conditioning.

Anyway, I didn't want people sending me PMs to think I'm rude for not answering them. I'm not allowed to send PMs here because I haven't posted. But I'll warn you, you might want to stay away from me. I'm nothing but trouble. I bet they aren't even going to approve this post.

Hi Rapunzel

we are a very diverse group here at NT and so I hope you will soon feel welcome :grouphug:

not sure why you feel you wouldnt be allowed to post here:confused: but glad you did :)

Hi there Rapunzel and welcome to Neurotalk from me as well.

I'm also glad that you posted and I'm sure that given time, you will be too.

As a member of Psych Central you'd probably have a good idea how these forums work, but if you need any help, please don't hesitate to ask.

May I suggest that as well as our Anxiety Forum you might like to visit our Survivors of Suicide Forum. It's a great place for people like yourself to share, or not to share, however comfortable you feel about your experiences.

It's good to meet you, and hopefully I'll meet up with you again some where on the board.

Here's the SOS link incase you're interested: http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/forum29.html

Rapunzel, of course your welcome here :hug:

Make yourself at home, explore and jump in anywhere :)

Like all of the others said - you are more than welcome here!!

If you need anything, don't be afraid to ask - i'm more than happy to help you in any way I can.

Take care and welcome to Neurotalk!!

Hi, Rapunzel! :Wave-Hello: Welcome to NeuroTalk!

Just be careful, our positive energy here is addictive. :)

Welcome Rapunzel, you will find we talk about many quality issues over here, does TP go over or under, wont go into details but most of the folks here had their eyes set on this pilot a few weeks back, something about nice legs, i don't know. It is a very diverse group here, many with great sense's of humor, and as we all know humor is the best medicine. many here have hearts of gold, and that is pricless, so i reiterate myself and say Welcome Rapunzel

Hey I'm glad you've found a place to communicate. Frank, as a mom of an adult son of ADHA and a husband too I suspect, and as a teacher of dyslexic kids, your bottom comments brightened my day. Susie

Hi Rapunzel and welcome to NeuroTalk!!
