A lot of you guys are talking about dating with MS, it’s now been 6years since my last relationship, I miss the banter , the fun , the hugging , the intimacy with a woman. So due to the lack of activity in my sex life I’ve decided to become a Muslim. My Muslim name will be “Seldom Bin Laidon”. Having MS is not exciting or easy to live with but we have to keep going and hoping life might get a little better for us , we have to keep smiling guys

Has anyone tried using neurotrophic vitamins to help regrow myelin? I keep seee these ads for it and I did some research. There is some truth behind it and I was wondering which brand you were taking? Seems like the OTC drugstore/grocery store synthetic vitamins don’t do the job like the natural ones. Any thoughts??

True story really. I am going to stay with my oldest son, here home my other son is overwhelmed, he doesn’t feel comfortable being too far from me🥹 his other siblings have minimized what he seeing maximally! We talk and I do understand his feelings, they are valid! So I’m me meeting my 2 granddaughters who are both under 4 so I am excited yet I have zero income😫 my flight and thing were gifted to me. I’m am grateful for that. I wanted to get to meet my granddaughters before anything else happens. I have hired counsel to assist me in obtaining Disability, I apply a few times and was denied. I can’t even afford my medication. Not looking for sympathy, I guess, just wanted to be more clear, I ABSOLUTELY hate MS and what it’s done to my confidence, yeah I don’t trust myself,& I before this all I was actually looking forward to turning 50! Yeah made it to 50 but I don’t like how I feel and how unsure I am now about the things I was MOST confident about doing, not so much these days and it makes me ANGRY cuz I didn’t plan this nor have the resources to live with this confidently. Praying for a steady body to keep doing what it HAS been doing for 49 years!! Health care is NOT caring these days and I can only say, timing has been my lack for some time now. I digress have a awesome MS’n day everyone. 💜🫶🏾🤟🏾💪🏾🤞🏾✌🏾

I’m experiencing neuropathic nerve pain in my legs and feet 😔 Its so mentally draining I’m finding it hard to cope with because I got to stay active to keep my mind sane and because I can’t do that right now I’m not coping at all. I’m having bad thoughts and I don’t normally get this low or depressed. How do you all manage this?
