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

Family accusing me of lying about MS

I try to explain my MS stuff to my family, but because of ALL the symtoms they think I'm a hypochondriac. They couldn't care less either way. And refuse to even listen to me. Or look at the paperwork I have made for them. I'm really struggling right now and had to move back home because I haven't f...

I'm paranoid people think I'm lying!

Sometimes I think people think that I'm lying, because my MS brain reacts weirdly to things. It's like as I'm trying to find words and remember things, it looks like I'm making stuff up!

Feelings

As I get older I’m starting to realize people don’t take multiple sclerosis as a real diagnosis. People think I’m lying when I tell them my diagnosis it’s to the point where I don’t even tell ppl about my condition. I feel judge and not even understood

Big Question

My Neurologist says that there is a cure of MS. Vaccine is necessary for MS patients. Is it so or he is lying?
