Do you think anyone actually understands?

I’m really struggling with feeling like I have to prove I’m ill, I’ve recently seen neuro, said I have the brain of a 70 year old - I’m 37. I don’t think anyone understands what is going on with my body, I’m having numbness more in my legs, headaches everyday, optic neuritis, spasms, and a lot of pain - which is my main symptom. I’m bored of life, I don’t go out, any help would be appreciated. Struggle to be in crowds - does anyone else have this? Thanx in advance xx

No one understands unless you tell em cos you look norm but may struggle with everyday things like walking etc ….be well and keep on keeping on

You know I don’t think they understand but I don’t think they should. The whole idea of walking a mile in someone’s shoes idea. The other thing is I’ve taken this as an opportunity. We’ve gotta share our experiences, share what we do, share all our stuff. Keep your head up…we’ve got this!!
