Fatigue : Hello everyone! I’m struggling with A lot of fatigue. I’ll get up in the morning have my coffee and bowl cereal, and about 1/2 hour or so I feel so tired my eyelids feel like they’re so heavy that I end up taking a nap! Does anyone have this too and/or any tips?

Hello all. Hope we are all kicking this beast into touch. I have a job interview coming up soon, and feel I may have to tell them I have MS, as I can sometimes wobble a bit, but not intirely sure as telling my last employer didn’t end well! I’d be truly grateful for any suggestions or advice on this.😁

The battle is ending for me

I think my condition has been outlined many times. Somewhere Last week or so I've concluded that I either make a recovery to walking outside again or I will commit suicide. This is my new logic. I've stopped being a normal person, I don't think properly anymore. I'm constantly thinking of death. I...

Feeling like I want to end it all

I had the day from hell on Saturday. I've been really poorly with a chest infection for about three weeks. Due to being on Fingolimod my immune system is very weak. It wouldn't seem to shift even with antibiotics. Then last Monday I developed numbness in my lower back accompanied by some severe nerv...

At the End of my Rope and DESPERATE

Hi everyone. I have had MS for 4.5 years, received first round of Lemtrada in May 2016. I have gotten much, much worse since Lemtrada. Coincidence? I stopped Aubagio to go on Lemtrada. Does anyone think that maybe I have gotten worse because of stopping Aubagio? I can barely walk and my balance...

Hi everyone. I have totally neglected myself and my life really including my MS with how utterly rubbish it all is for me atm. Im trying so hard to work out my marriage and its just too hard. I have noone to talk to as I dont want ppl I know finding out. Me n my kids aren't homeless anymore...we have a home now. But I am really really becoming depressed and having such bad thoughts. I want my husband so much as I love him but he isn't even a nice person 80% of the time. I dont even no why im putting this...im just needing to talk or It will end up killing me. Ive had 2 small flare ups since June because of all this. I live with 3hours sleep and constantly throwing up from stress and pain more than normal. I just dont know what to do anymore. Im a mum to an autistic 15yr old in yr 11 and a 4yr old starting school. I have almost nothing left in me. I dont know how to either work the marriage out or walk away...I need peace and I wont ever have it with him but it felt like it was worth it but now I dont know if it is. Sorry im just so upset xx

I’m so frustrated. I feel like I go on apps and I try to reach out to many different places to see if I can find help or support and I feel like I’m just hitting a wall over and over again I’m getting to the point where I feel like I’m gonna take things in to my own hands and just end it all because I really think people think that I lying when I say, I can’t find help
