How to Tell Family/Friends
Hello Everyone,
I was diagnosed Nov 2018 with RRMS. Since then, I've only told my partner and close friends as I'm currently not very close with my family. I've had a few flare ups, but managed my symptoms so that there was seemingly no physical difference.
I was wondering if anyone has advice regarding telling others? I seem to have this view that I shouldn't be telling people (I don't think it's wrong to tell people, I was just raised to keep things like this quiet), but I also really want to tell people and bring awareness..
Any advice is greatly appreciated!
Thank you.
I’d do what’s right for you. You don’t have to fly the flag for MSers. If you feel in a situation that it comes up naturally you might experiment with telling someone and see how you feel. There’s no one way to do MS 😀
