Our Mission

To ensure that any person who endures the pain and agony of RSD or related illnesses does not suffer needlessly because they do not have anyone that validates and understands their pain. By providing an avenue of support readily available to these individuals and their family and caregivers, we will enable them to vent frustrations, find support, encouragement and knowledge that they may gain the valuable tools necessary for proper and adequate pain treatment which will allow them to lead productive and meaningful lives.

Our Medical Board is a vast library of information regarding research, suggestions, clinical trials and various pain scales that help you in your search for the best treatment for your condtion. Included are links to different clinics and associations to assist you for your specific area.

Everyone may have areas of special concern at times in their life. On site is a Prayer Board where one can express those concerns. Religious affiliation is not a requirement and religious discrimination is not tolerated.

On site is a special area designed for youth under 16 years. Youth are also affected by Chronic Pain or depression whether it is firsthand or secondary. There are boards set up for these youth to express that and share with others their own age the trials associated with their own struggles.

Our Recipe Board has a collection of over 2000 various, mouthwatering treats which are available to everyone. A recipe drive was the first activity that members participated in and in an overwhelming and unexpected response we are still posting the results.

In our Fun-n-Games we tossed all those items that everyone has laying around that one cannot live without. Games, puzzles, a search program for both on site and on the net searches, word games and more.

We believe that Inspiration and Words of Wisdom help create an environment of calm and then throw in the Aromatherapy tips for a complete afternoon of "take me away" splendor to ease your discomfort. Our Inspirations Board, The Mind's Eye Board and our Aromatherapy Board was developed to give you easy, all-in-one place access to create your peaceful place.

Of course, no group is ever complete without laughter! We post 'Laugh Lines' frequently to produce those endorphins which are called the body's natural 'morphine' to get you well on your way to a more relaxed state of mind.

The General Message Board is for members to share thoughts and ideas, ask for suggestions or just chat about their lives in gneral. We don't give advice from a medical standpoint but we all have ideas about things we have used that works for us and we can share it with others in hope that it helps them. We are a 'G' rated group so language used on all the boards is appropriate for every age group. You may click the button to go directly to the General Board from here.
