Explaining DMT to friends and family
Hey has anyone else had problems with friends and family understanding the treatment. I’ve spent time with my friends and family explaining the treatment and truly thought they understood. I had my first full treatment of Ocrevus yesterday and a friend has texted asking when will the treatment start working? I’ve tried explaining that we are looking to reduce the risk of disease activity NDA. And we won’t know if it’s truly effective, just hoping it prevents any more disease activity. But I am at a loss of how else to explain. Anyone else got any tips of how best to explain.
They don't even understand M.S., not going to even attempt to explain the treatments. Which none have even touched the M.S., or explain how or why the symptoms don't match the MRI results. I'm way beyond that. If they want to try and figure it out....I invite them to research it themselves....that's when the subject changes rather quickly🫤🤷♂️
It's called a DMT not a medication for a reason! It's not there to make you better, it's there to slow you getting worse! Not to be bleak but that's the explanation I give (stop/slow your worsening) The reason it's not called a meditation is that would have the sub text of recovery
