Loneliness

Has anyone felt extremely lonely or isolated and lost a lot in different ways since being diagnosed? How do you navigate this please?

It's not uncommon to feel this way. I found an online community to do with my interest (Ancient Egypt) has been really helpful. Do you have an interest that you could see if there is an online community for it? Have you thought of contacting your local MS Society group? I found that helpful as you can socialise with people who have MS and also get advice etc. Hope this helps.

100% felt like this a few times and it is a horrible feeling as no one understands MS unless they have it. Hopefully people on here can help you and be there for you 🙏
