It's not always your MS!!!

Was chatting to someone recently & wondered how many of you tend to explain stuff as "it's just the MS" without thinking that it could just be your body!?! Are you ever exhausted at the end of some days thinking "it's just the MS" when actually you've had a really crap and stressful day at work?

Hi Donna, I'm sure a lot of us are guilty of this! It's very easy when your knackered to assume it's because of the ms but I'm trying to train myself to remind myself that after a long week at work or a really busy weekend ANYONE would be feeling tired! It's a hard thing to try and do but I feel a lot more positive and actually less fatigued when I make myself realise it's just because I've had a long day!

I agree. It's too easy to think it's your MS especially when it comes to tiredness. I just think I work too hard :) Seriously tho, I think with having MS I am more cautious of wearing myself out so altho it might not be my condition, it's still better to be careful so as not to make it worse. (it's also fun to blame stuff on my MS when I just really can't be arsed! Ha!)
