I'm newly diagnosed, (last year) and despite the title of this, I'm not depressed or anything, but I don't know how anyone does this for 20 or 30 years.
Spasticity. RLS. Numbness. Pins and needles. Temperature sensitivity. Itching for no reason. Brain fog. Insomnia. The pain. Oh the pain of all of these these things. Then pile on doctors that don't listen and friends who pull away, spouses that just literally give all the have until they have no choice but to retreat.
How do you keep going? How do you push through?
I'm in pain now, but in a generally happy place in life, but how does anyone do this for so long? How can anyone feel like this, and worse, for 20+ years?
