I used to dream in such a way where I was "normal" in my dreams. Now when I dream I am struggling with the MS in my dreams just as I do when I'm awake. As a result I wake up absolutely exhausted from my dream struggles.
The other day I had a dream that I was on the beach and in my dream I was realising that I would never again walk on the sand or indeed swim in the sea. I won't even begin to describe how I felt.
It seems there is no escaping this diabolical monster. Anyone else with this issue?
Dreams aside, my biggest challenge other than dealing with the physical difficulties brought on by MS is not giving in to the mental anguish and defeat. It is literally a constant uphill battle staying positive when you realise your life is another version of groundhogs day and is all but over. But my tolerance for negativity is zilch and I am constantly applying that to myself with daily reminders of how fortunate I am that I have what I have and don't have what I don't have. When the pity party is threatening to rear its ugly head, I get annoyed with myself for being so shallow, in fact an ex boyfriend once told me he knew puddles deeper than me - and that was before the MS had it's wicked way! lol
