Is anybody there? Did the chronic illness community here fade away? Is beliefnet a mirage?

Tiger-Mom, I would love to chat........ Do you do face book....Or do u use another form of chatting?? I dont think BN has chat options.... If you'd like to "real" chat, call me at 843 412 8799...

I would so enjoy hearing from any fellow members that would like to meet new people. I would love to chat, get to know each other, and possibly become friends! Thanks, Tiger_mom

Hi everyone. I haven't been on the BN site for some months, especially since the whole format was changed. my profile is messed up & they erased my avatar & placed it by my photos. I really would like to have someone to talk with; my health has deteriorated. In late March/early April, I was hospitalized for the 24th time being violently ill w/ vomiting & pain. it took the hospital 4 days to stop the vomiting & it was torture. I can't see taking this anymore. My boyfriend that I live with literally ignores my illnesses; I am unable to talk to him about anything. I feel isolated. I'd appreciate it if someone would have the time to talk w/ me and share their story, I'm hanging by a thread here. There's been a few deaths lately from accidental overdoses in the news & to be honest, I've had that cross my mind too. It's extremely hard to drop my gaurd & talk about this, but I'm afraid if I don't reach out, I'll take my exit; even though I don't want to. About a year ago I wrote the post called 'Alive, but not living.' on here. Well, I don't know what more to say people. Thanks for listening.-Cinnamon6
