A little about my story

I'm finally typing this out. I apologize for the length. I just signed up for this Ap, and want to vent about life a little bit. I got diagnosed with RRMS in 2022. Although like I'm sure most of you, I was struggling with mysterious symptoms for years leading up to it. My left hand went numb, li...

Please can people think before commenting on people's posts who are on the edge of a mental breakdown.
