Social Anxiety

I was diagnosed in 2006 with PPMS. Tysabri & Gamunex-c not work last 3 yrs. The past 14 mths it hit hard, I barely able word form, speak and walk with cane/walker. I have bad social anxiety, especially around others I know. What y’all found help calm that? I’m find I hide out alone to not feel it.

I'm in the UK so not sure but have you an MS Society which has local branches? If you reach out to them they will help you & go to a local meeting where you can socialise with others who know exactly what you are going through. There is no need to feel anxious if you are meeting people in the same situation. Take care

@ClaireVS the closest branch is 1 1/2 hr away from small town I live so I unable do that but great idea. No one seems interested learning more about ms and how affects me so I feel no one truly cares.
