So I am normally a happy go lucky kind of person-well I try to be. I am 33 years old (dx at 29). I honestly had a pretty crappy upbringing with my parents not accepting me as being gay. My mother was dx with MS when I was 9 years old, so I had to grow up pretty fast. I no longer have a relationship with my family as a result of them not accepting me, for me. I have suffered wth mental health my entire life. Been in an out of the hospital due to many suicide attempts. I have always had shitty things happen to me, health wise. But I have always just brushed it, was kinda funny (at the time). As I get older and now have a dx of MS (and Fibro) the stupid things are just getting to be to Much. I said to my wife today “I bet there are a lot people who just don’t believe me anymore” For example I had my licence taken away due to stupid reason. I’m currently in the process to get it back but it’s not a for sure thing, so the stress is real. I’m also suffering with a double ear infection. The doctor said it was swimmers ear??? All I know, is that it actually was more painful than my MS pain. On October 10 I lost my best friend of 15 years to cancer. I won’t list EVERYTHING cause my fingers can’t do that much typing, but it’s those type of things happen ALL THE TIME and I'm honestly done. I know it may not seem like a lot because I haven’t told you everything, but it really has been so much. I honestly don’t know what I am needing from This post but I’m just tired of shit. I’m tired of doctors not believing me cause “my symptoms don’t match my scans” I’m tired of people/doctors thinking it’s my mental health or that I am looking for attention. I could go on. Thanks for listening. -Steph
