Relationship and a Relapse ext
Hey All!!
Im new to this App i have only recently branched out to find out more about MS and healthy living.
I got diagnosed with MS when i was 13 years old i am now 25. I went threw all of school not talking about my ms i talk to nobody as it was a rollercoaster getting diagnosed with Ms and finding the correct treatment for me and i lots friends as i missed alot of school.
All of my family knew since it happened and i went years maybe about when i was 20 years old i started talking about it but i would always and still do put it to the back of my mind. I try to make the most of everything and make every occasion as special as possible because i have the mind of anything can happen at anytime so make the most of everything.
(Bit of a brief story)
The main reason i posted this was i have had friends and Bfs running as soon as i told them about my Ms. I feel like i grew up so much more quicker because i got diagnosed so young and had to understand alot about what was going on. I now realised that was so much for anyone to handle let alone myself in denial for years.
I really liked this boy i liked him the moment i saw him ( current bf now) and i was out straght told him if this is getting serious this is whats wrong and i told him and he was ok with it. I was only 18 at the time of this. I have had to tell him what it is and explain about my treatment ect of corse too. And also what my limits are due to my physical ability because of my ms.
We are now with each other for 8 years and i have never ever have had a relapse when i have been with him. I know how much of struggle it might be to look after someone that might not be able or not at all able during a relapse to look after themselves and might need help 24/7.
Has anyone else gone threw this and what was there partners reaction when it happened as no matter how much i tell him if it did happen i need him to help me?
Thanks you for reading sorry it was so long 🫣🫣 also thank you for reading ❤️
I talk about my MS a lot, and if someone needs to run away they can do one after the first date so I don't end up forming an attachment 😂 its difficult to find an understanding person, someone who is actually willing to do the research...
He’s stuck with you for 8 years - he knows what he’s up against.. if it happens I’m sure he will stick by you and take care of you! He sounds like he loves you. My partner said to me he loves me no matter what, there’s been times when he’s had to look after me and our children because I haven’t been able and although after he admits it’s hard he said that’s what you do for love 🥰🥰 I’m sure your boyfriend will be the same .. ❤️❤️
