Mental Health

Hi all, What's your most brain squishing problem since you were diagnosed? I don't mean MS symptoms, rather the affects on your mental health? I'm struggling again and find myself crying and/or getting very short tempered with people who 'self diagnose' or use their illness as an excuse. Not great in my line of work either! 😊
@merfield

@sarah_menday, I’m ppms and the oldest on here I think so I’m a different case. I was relieved when I was dxed as I’d been having odd symptoms for a few years. I’ve taken anti depressants since my partner was dxed with emphysema about 19yrs ago so they help. Maybe see your GP - you sound like you need a bit of help just to you through this patch. See what he/she thinks. Sorry you’re going through it Sarah. xx

@Dixce

I think I'm coping OK since DX 2 years ago but do find my self like you crying over small things and getting a bit snappy with people who are "tired too" I work with the public full time which is hard and I have to bite my tongue loads!!
