Help
my name is ainhoaI am 23 years old And in 2020 I received the Diagnosis ms.
Because of this, I lost my job worked as a cook. It's a tough job with a lot of stress .
My family does not support me. They say it's not a disease And that's why I'm looking for help To feel that someone understands me
Hi I am sure that a lot of people here understand you. I am diagnosed 27 years and the first 5 years were for me the worst coming to terms with it. Then I decided ms does not define me. It is something I have and sometimes I have to make adjustments for but it will never stop me from doing what I want. I live in the now and I manage my stress. If today is not great I believe tomorrow will be better an most of the time it is. I worked in a high stress job for years, I own my home, I travel, I exercise, I enjoy my life and you will too. My family also weren't great about my diagnosis but that's their problem not mine and I still love them but when I need support I have wonderful friends. Please be kind to yourself and keep telling yourself you are amazing and wonderful and live your life
Wow! Reading your post was super sad. You are welcome here. Having a MS diagnosis is super hard. It means reevaluating our desires/expectations. Don’t ditch all of life’s desires. Maybe 🤔 have lots of plans to accommodate the what if’s of MS. Welcome 🤗.
