When I am struggling with my cog fog and unable to remember what I was going to say or find the right words, it sucks but I can just about cope with it. but what I really really hate is when the other person feels they have to minimise my difficulty or make me feel better by likening my difficulties to their menopause symptoms/old age/ exhaustion. I want to shout "NO!! This is not menopause; I am not old; this is something that I never had an issue with until I got MS and it's significant for me so don't make light of it." Of course I don't shout that. I smile nicely and move one. What do you folks hate ?
