Title: I hit fifty.
Post by MPMIII on Oct 8^th, 2008 at 9:35am

When I showed up here a year and half ago, I thought that it was going to be a short visit. I thought that this malady would soon go away and I would get back to some sense of normalcy. Boy was I wrong. Being chronic, the beast has not left me since he showed up and I now visit this site more than any other(well..., maybe not as much as Drudge). I never really gave an intro post because I honestly thought that I would not be hanging around. So a note to the newbie's, you may be here a lot longer than you think. The support and information that exists here has made a real tough ride a little easier. Thanks to all.

Regards,

Malcom

WARNING!!!

This site may be habit forming.

Extreme addiction occurs within a short time period.

Withdrawal is VERY difficult and painful.

You HAVE been warned!

Chuck is right -- I've been here since 98 - can't seem to stay away from this place. Get up in the morning - get coffee - come here to see what happened overnight --

But I can quit anytime I want to... Yeah right... :) Then what would Chuckles do without me to pull his chain?

This place is a daily habit for me noow. I load up my IM programs, ragnarok online, then CH after I check my mail.

*lol* For us it's whenever a hit is coming or just left...it takes the pressure off knowing someone's out there too; as sucky as it is. I love it here so much!!! I post a lot just because of the relief of being able to connect...takes a lot of the psychological pressure off both of us! I love that warning sign, by the way. LMFO!

End at 50? Mine started at 55. I've had migraines all my life, which abated in menopause, only to morph into these damn c.h.'s at 55.

As I type this I'm holding an ice pack to my right cheek...

Malcom,

I've been here since spring of 2004. I log on daily, hasn't been a day I've missed. Sometime I'm guest and just read because I don't have much to say, some days I post more than others. (STFU Chuck) ;D

I've been pretty much PF for a good year and a half now, and I stay here because ....

1) this is home.

2) I help those who are seeking advice about alternative methods of treatment

3) I know a select few that would come hunt my azz down if I dissapeared.

I love this family. They tend to put up with me.... ;)

Pegg,
You're in Stevens Point? I spent some years of my youth there, and go back and forth for family stuff now. Nice to hear that we have a connection other than cluster headaches...

I've beeen on here since the old text only board back in the 90s. Then the new board, and now the new new board. I don't find it habit forming at all.
