Hi, my name is Smudger92!

Smudger92

I suffer from Fibromyalgia, IBS and Diverticular disease plus like many others as a consequence I have mental illness as well. I always believed that would never be me. Well obviously it is now. That being the case, I finally took my head out of the sand and decided that I really need to chat with other like minded people. That's the reason I joined. Thank you for having me.

Hi @Smudger92 - & welcome to this friendly & supportive community. You might like to try our virtual 'Coffee lounge' too for some light-hearted chat & discussions, & perhaps join in with the various word games, etc. that are also there. I hope you enjoy being part of this group.
