I have never been formally diagnosed with Fibromyalgia but I strongly believe I do have it. I am diagnosed with Bipolar 2 and chronic depression.

Yep Crystal,I'm right there with you,along with some other Health issues.
All of this just seems to feed the Depression more and poor self-esteem OMG,seems like everything I do trigers a episode,but I am still trying to reach out and up,my Faith seems to be the only one thing that's keeping me afloat,I'm new to the site and honestly didn't realize that there are so many people feeling many of the same things,I don't really talk to many people about this and I really don't make friends in person very much,I guess just easier for Me to Tx or e-mail a few folks,easier to share feelings behind a keyboard for Me for some reason,I guess fear of getting close and getting hurt,guys aren't suppose to show feeling or hurt,right!? Well We don't admit it much if We do.
Anyhow,sure I would love to make some new friends here,like I said I'm really trying not to let this Depression swallow Me up,feel free to PM Me if you like or Post message here,need friends to talk to bad,HELP !!!

Hi all, I am new to this forum. I never ever wrote on any forum. I am glad to find this site as I am seeing a lot of people having the same problems as I do. I am feeling so sad, alone and depressed. I had been bullied by my manager and when I complained I was the one who paid the price they terminated my employment. I had been out of work for 3 months now and I am feeling so sorry for myself with no job and having a hard time looking for one due to this depressing market. I had been to all sorts of employment agencies, spending a great deal of time in the internet looking for a job, applying to any jobs and still no one is hiring me. Money is becoming an issue now too. I am hurting physically as well, I have this nagging backache that never goes away. Though not yet officially diagnosed I believe I have adult ADD. The on-line test that I did was indicative of that. Much as I wanted to be assessed by a doctor, I could not afford the high priced assessment fee they are charging. There are days that I do not even know if I am coming or going. All I know is I am so sad and often times see myself crying.
