MS related loneliness?
Before my diagnosis, ~2019, I was a social butterfly. I’d go out to bars or anywhere populated, and just talk to random people. My confidence was uncanny. I was an adrenaline seeking person, I was freestyle wrestling, running etc.
Then boom MS and lockdown happened and I lost a lot of my motion and socialization. I can’t remember things since it’s kinda impossible to write down everything and not meeting/interacting
EDIT:
Forgot to mention this, I was, even, a member of the executive committee (GP) of a chapter of the Kappa Sigma fraternity
I can appreciate what you are saying as ms is so unpredictable. Surround yourself with good trusted friends who understand that you have the condition but it doesn’t define you. Even visiting a coffee shop where firstly you have made the first step to go out with a friend and being in a social setting that is not too loud, busy but you are being around other people. Even if you are there for half an hour you have taken a huge step forward. I appreciate the brain fog from ms and more since lockdown. Fortunately I have an Alexa ( when she can understand my voice) and I leave reminders. Just take small steps without pressure and you will get there. Good luck
I felt same so I bought a dog - he’s my best friend now and also forced me to walk. I met lots of new people and frequent walks definitely helps my mental and physical health. Just a suggestion that has worked for me. Keep going ❤️
