Feeling useful. Friends?

Hi there, It is one year now from when I found out I might have MS. A lot of things happened (including being diagnosed, choosing my treatment etc.) I have days and day, both phisically and emotionally. I used to be a very active person in the community and now. I feel that I want to do something useful, to feel that I am helping someone that goes to the same fears and uncertainties that I went through and even do sometimes. I am a bit down and insecure lately and I was thinking about making a blog, writing how I feel, but I am not that good with words... I feel a bit stuck as I feel I need to do something. What would you recommend? Thank you S.

Hi @noname ! Ughh it sucks to feel like this. At the beginning of my diagnosis I was in the same boat. I felt like someone just ripped my identity away, not a good feeling. It is totally normal to feel this way. Take this time to work on yourself and find what makes you happy. No better feeling to know that you are helping someone else who needs advice the same way you did. If a blog is what you want to do, then do it! It will be great so don't be discouraged :)

Hi @noname , yes, writing a blog is an excellent idea. Don't worry about not being good with words. It will make the blog feel more genuine, rather than being a sterile passage of text. Getting it all written down will allow you to get a lot of issues off your chest. It could be quite cathartic for you.
