Hi All,
Guess what? I'm new! I'm scared, intimidated and a mite paranoid about where this Bluelight path will lead. But I desperately need support and somehow think I might find it here. I'm an artist and I live in chronic pain, a prisoner in my stagnant body. My mind is fertile and longs to create but I am so exhausted and drained from pain, I find even the smallest tasks to be seemingly insurmountable chores! Initially I wasn't going to sign up, but I couldn't access some of the information I was seeking so I broke down and registered. I'm really glad I did. I'm looking forward to the new friendships I expect to encounter and information coming from a different perspective than just the myopic views of the standard western medical profession.
Here's to all the newly joined and the established, and the wealth of information and support that is now so readily accessible to us.

Smoky has given you some links to parts of the site which you may find helpful. We also have an adoption programme here where current members (Bluelighters) offer to befriend new members to help them settle in better.
