Mental heath+hospital

Hi so I was diagnosed about 4 months ago when I lost my ability to walk and see at 19. They are slowly coming back still. I had to spend 16 days in the hospital, hade to get a tube in my neck ( 7 plasma infusions), spinal tap +a couple of other things. I think it's the mix of how sudden it was and h...

Anyone else stuff with mental health problems? I'm in crisis at the minute so all over place. Sleeping all day and up all night. I've had problems before when I was sectioned.

Working with MS and mental health

Hi everyone. Since returning to work I’ve unwittingly created myself an issue to affect my mental health. Been back at work a month! All going well! This hot weather has finished me off and this morning can barely walk or function. Decided to listen to my body and not work today (I could’ve worked f...

Mental Health

Hi, I suffer quiet badly with my mental health and I do wonder if its relating to the inflammation. I'm currently on ocrevus infusions but I am wondering if there would be a better treatment that would help more with these symptoms?

I'm so tired of feeling like I'm not good enough, worthless, alone. I'm afraid that I'll be alone for the rest of my life. Ik that if I'm alone when my mom passes that I won't be able to stop my suicidal ideation from taking over. I have borderline personality disorder and my worst fear is being alone not having anyone to help me walk through the pain that my mom passing will bring. This has been on my mind so much lately. I am honestly afraid of what will happen... I fight with my mental health the most. Besides the fatigue my depression, my borderline personality disorder and suicidal ideation is something I have always had a hard time with. Any feedback would be great.

I've been a nurse for about 10yrs, worked mostly nights. Since being diagnosed last December I have not worked. I took my first dose of Mavenclad awaiting the 2nd round in the next couple weeks. I want to return to work but I dont know if I trust my body and afraid I may send myself in a relapse. I want to transition to something less toxic on my mental/physical health. I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO.

Two and a half years through

Hi, I've not been here for ages because it wasn't good for my mental health. I just really needed a safe space to vent. I'm on the maximum dose of Sertraline at the moment but I don't feel that it's helping enough. I was diagnosed with RRMS in December 2022 and my life has completey changed sin...
