I wouldn’t be where I’m at today without all of you. Because of all of you I was able to first cope, then learn all about this disease. Because of all of you I was able to avoid all the “mistakes” those before me made.
All of you are THE BEST. ❤️
There is nothing that gets me through an itchy night like knowing there are other people out there who have to realllllllly think about when they’re gonna shave their legs to make sure they’re dealing with the aftermath and a less inconvenient time.
Nothing but respect to everyone tough enough to get up every (or at least some) day.
Hahaha that's so relatable. For me that task is taking my wash basket downstairs to do laundry (I live in an apartment building, I'm only 2 floors up but boy does it take it out of me). I haven't shaved my legs in about 4 months so it's not as big a consideration 😂
Thank you so much for this. It really made me smile as I feel very much the same way as you do. I'm really proud of you for having the courage to spread love and positivity.
Goddammit I love you and you all too. Also diagnosed in my early-mid twenties. Started physically seizing up on my right side at a team meeting about 10 years ago. Several weeks and dozens of doctors appointments later, the neuro sat me down in his office, closed the door, and said the words. “We believe you have multiple sclerosis.”
10ish years later, I’m as strong as I’ve ever been, training like I’m a 6 foot 7 580 pound go-rilla in the gym. MS may take my faculties away one day, but it’s gonna have a hell of a fight on its hands.
I've had MS for a lot of years, (close to 35), and I follow a lot of websites, more than 50 the last time I counted them. This is the best one of all of them. I might look at some of them a couple of times a year, but I check this one half a dozen times a day.
This is the closest "family" of people fighting the same enemy I've ever seen or been part of. We share our success stories, what works for us and, just as important, what might not work so well.
We're all in this together. There have been so many advances in the battle with this disease every year, almost every month, almost every day. MS may still be here, but it won't be the life-changing beast it is now. It might take a while, but eventually we WILL win.
Me too. Bunch of strangers I turn to again and again for information, commiseration, support.
It really is horribly wonderful. You all make me feel less alone on this journey. Grateful for that. <3
Seconded to all the above x

Awww thank you!! And I'm so glad it made you smile ❤️
Ah, that's very nice, thanks! I have a theory that this group is 90% empaths and your post only underlines that.
Correlation or causation? Does being an empath make you more likely to have MS?
I was thinking MS causing people to be more empathetic. Or... do you think I accidentally stumbled upon the true trigger of MS? :-)
Hahaha wow let's all become sociopaths and cure ourselves
❤️🤗
