I am 44 and have been struggling with depression my whole life. I was diagnosed with RA when I was 40. I think I have had signs of RA for much longer but they were masked by my active athletic high school and college life.
I am an adult child of an alcoholic. I am just learning how that has affected me. It has played an enormous part in how I think and act as an adult. I had no idea!
No one even knows that I struggle with depression, since I am a wonderful actress! lol As far as anyone knows, I'm great! All is good! This, of course is exhausting for me.
I just started seeing a therapist, for the first time, in March, 2010. I see now that it has been something that I should have done a long, long time ago! I have already learned a lot which has helped me greatly. I know that I have much more to learn.
I am looking forward to meeting everyone. :)
