now PLEASE don't find me insensitive...but i am somewhat serious...what of the lonely lot of us who cannot inter-act due to this affliction? i might be asking for trouble, but at least two people who are both thus infected wouldn't be further-ly 'spreading the disease'...peace and love, marabelle

Dear Marabelle, I commend you on your creative ideas, but come on. That’s a gross one! How much traffic do you think you would get??? Slim pickins sister!

ahh...a little healthy debate! hope--thanks for your diplomatic reply, but i don't really understand the "gross" part...i guess because i truly believe that beauty only runs skin deep..(no pun intended).and though i have not had lesions and such, if i felt a connection with someone who did, then that would not interfere with my feelings...also i think that this would be the far more socially responsible alternative than "mixing and mingling" with the unaffected population....for myself, i have been divorced or separated for nearly 2 yrs...i am emotionally ready for a relationship, physically attractive enough that i have been asked out on dates /all of which i have had to decline--due to this...(my ex was obviously infected as welll...but after 2 yrs c'mon.... i was only suggesting that those of us who have been literally physically, intimately estranged for who knows how long, might find solace in each other? i dont mean this as an attack,to you, in any way, but i am not certain you understand my position, as you stated before being in a hottub w/your boyfreind when all the stuff came out of you...so i'm guesisng you've been getting some... on the other hand, as i thought about it myself last nite, this could be a tricky situation, as not everyone is afflicted with the same stuff...and two people together , with compromised immmune systems, might prove disastrous for both!!!!....like anthill said "MAN DOES IT SUCK BAD!!!" thanx for sharing your input, hope...peace marabelle...

I’m sorry Marabelle. I did not look at it the way you have just explained and did not realize how insensitive I was being. Please forgive me. The fear of infecting someone who does not have this, affects us all and I admire your deep concern. Although I do not get any on a regular basis, I do have some “friends” that I call when the need arises. I do not desire any kind of relationship right now but I do understand the need for intimacy that we all experience. Love them and leave them is my motto!

it's okay, Hope--thanx for seeing my side of things i guess what has "restrained" me from accepting any offers for dates, romantic liasaons, ETC! is that i perceive my having this morgellons (for lack of better term!) as basically having an std., and i have not yet encountered anyone that i feel comfortable enough with to have the @#$%s to say, "look, i have 'this'--no one knows what exactly 'it' is--but if you and i get together, you, too may get "it"!!! unfortunately, when i did the love 'em and leave 'em, back in the day, my karma kicked me in the ass something fierce! so i have ABSOLUTELY learned to not put out there, what i would not want returned to me!!!! peace , marabelle

so the first ad will read something like:
SWF Morgie unable to work, no income, still hopeful for state disability claim, seeks meaningful relationship with like infested hetero male. Brain-fog, mood disorder and bi-polar friendly; medications / addictions on case by case basis.
Favorite activities: scab and lesion viewing (I have all the optics necessary), scratching frenzies, whining and general self-loathing, trying any new ointment for relief and exchanging ideas on new and different drugs to take.

Jodyann I totally agree with you. This is one of the worst aspect of this scourge. I do not sit down on the couch with my kids, nor do I hug them anymore. It is just so sad. I have a niece who comes here sometimes & I do not even touch her!!! If ever I get over this that is one of the things I would do first - hug my kids - hopefully it will be some time soon.

Yes, yes, yes! I miss hugging people! I am a huggy person all the way. huggy, touchy, kissy. I am married, of course, and I am so sorry for those of you who are alone. Gary doesn't seem to mind all this, but I feel dirty, too. Of course, we are getting better, now, treating for yeast, taking the silver, and taking the glycos. (also after applying yeast cream to all these bumps and small lesions I have had on and off for YEARS, they were about 50% gone this morning. Try it, people, I'm serious.
Anyway---I'm praying for you singles. You'll need somebody really good after all this crap! And Chaz, that was frickin' hilarious... Luvs, Heather (Itching)

No offense to anyone, but the last thing I would do is hook up with another Morgie, at an intimate level.
We all seem to have something just a little different.
The last thing I need is to finally make some headway and then get another "version" of this, culminating in the Morgie hybrid super-infection.
Conversely, I think my partner should/could have the same concern.
If it's the SAME version, you would just be passing it back and forth.
I already have that problem with the dog. At least with her I can give her a plastic lizard and kick her off the bed.
Don't think that's gonna' work for a SO.

awww come on let's spread the love it's all in our mind's right" If that analogy is correct then something that is a figment of our imagination cant be contagious right"
my biggest fear and stress has been spreading this to my loved ones and other Innocent's in my community but the water has broke the dam and there is no way to put it back in the dam due to complacency and I do have to live
I wouldn't wish to give this nightmare to anyone with one exception DOCTOR'S that suck turds"
never the less I have to keep my love alive in fantasy at least

Well, my partner has it, and already has a blood disease, as so do I. So I have stopped sex, we hug once to twice a day(: , and Maybe a peck, but it took me two months to prove that something wasn't rite in ourselves and our home. Ohh well, yeah, this board is to LAUGH....not sulk....trust me, I have had the pleasure of seeing fireworks close to Disneyland here, and other things like that, it does help keep yer mind off of sex, hehe. Good Luck guys/gals!!!!

We can set up a category for personals if you wish. I can imagine how many have lost spouses or relationships over this. Maybe it would do some of you good to find a special friend to connect with via internet.. a shoulder to cry on and whatnot. Ya know.. people can find love on the internet.. Ive seen it firsthand. And it doesnt always have to be about sex, ya know? We as a group have the ability to see each other as we are on the inside rather than judging looks based on the outside. Its hard going thru this alone. Maybe it would be a good idea to create a personals section. Only we know what the others on here are going thru, so who better to look for then someone who understands us? Cyber relationships can be healthy. They can give you that reason to care about yourself again, make you feel like someone really cares and understands.. and maybe make this mess not so bad. Let me know and we can create a category... Chaz.. I am answering yours right now.. its just too hot to resist...LOL..

Kerri I was thinking the same thing!
But this really is a delimma that every person has to decide for theirselves I guess. I am not with anyone right now and dont know if I would hook up with another infected person or not. Its a tough call I know how you all feel and am so sorry for us having to go thru this.

hi everyone i am not infected with anything yet note i say yet because what iv read and resurched so far on this subject its just a matter of time befor everyone is infected if its being sprayed on the world by aircraft but i aplaud you for thinking about the rest of us who dont have this and your abilaity to deny your self one of the best things in life and that is a life partner in order to keep everyone else from getting this stuff. my heart and soul goes out to you people i wish that there was something i could do to make it all go away. i had scabbies once and so i have a bit of a felling of how you feel but for something that wont go away is much worse then what i had because i knew ther was a cure. i give you people the congressional medal of honor dave
