When I 1st got diagnosed last year, I kinda knew I had MS, I have a family history of it, so it wasn't a surprise to me when they confirmed it with a spinal tap. So I just took the news and moved on. Never really had a break down about it, or was upset, just dealt with the injections and symptoms. Now 1 year later, my neurologist thinks its a good idea I see a therapist about having MS and talking about feelings and what I go through with MS and just my life in general. I am not one to open up to just anyone in 20 minutes. I need to learn I can trust you then I will open up.
I saw a therapist once he recommended, and 2 minutes after we met she dove right into how did you feel when you got diagnosed, I just broke down immediately. I didn't trust her, didn't know her and felt like she didn't know me at all. But more so, that session showed me I had a lot of feelings I never dealt with, if I was crying when she asked me about it. I do think it will be good for me to talk to someone about the whole MS thing.
Do you see a therapist for MS? Is it helpful? How often do you go?
Thanks for your help!!
