Acceptance.
Having being diagnosed early last year, I cannot seem to accept being an MS sufferer. I tend to ignore it, not read up on it or anything. Suppose I’m scared. I was told by my consultant today that maybe part of the acceptance procedure would be to talk to people with similar issues, as this may help me. Any ideas would be appreciated.
That is a great idea! Keep in mind, everybody's experience is different! It can be scary reading about some of the things we deal with st different times. I was diagnosed a few years ago and was terrified, but now I look at other people's experiences as helpful tools in navigating this! Much luck and this is a great way to become familiar with this!
If you click on the menu icon you will get an option for "Buddy Network". If you pursue this then Shift.ms will assign you a buddy who is a fellow MS sufferer and someone for you to talk to.
