In May 2015, about 6 months after being diagnosed with MS I lost my best friend and fiancé with only 20 days to go until wedding day. We were together for 6 years and engaged a few months before the diagnosis. Since then, she has completely cut me off with no explanations outside of that she didn't want to get married. Throughout the summer I have since gotten involved with another, but am being constantly haunted by the thoughts of my recent loss and the question of why things happened the way they did. I get no response from the ex when I ask for an explanation. Complete and utter disrespect for my mental well being. I am to the point now that I lose sleep thinking about it and am missing work because of it as well.
Surprisingly, I get support in this matter from my new partner but I am afraid that she too will soon get tired of my mental struggles. So, I have started back in therapy to help this struggle. Yet, here I lay in bed at 2am.
Has anyone else out there had similar issues with love and MS? If so, do you have any suggestions on how to cope and get through the depression?
