    I am 20 years old and have been living with MS for 3 years.

    I want to meet new people who also have MS and can understand what I have to deal with.

    Hi my name is eric and I am 20 years old. I was diagnosed when I was 17 and I have felt alone ever since. My parents try there best to understand but they just do not understand what happens to me.

      Hi Eric, and welcome. you are among friends here.

      My partner was also young when she learned of her MS.

      20 plus years later she met me and told me I am the only person in all that time that really understands her. what i did was read and read and read.

      and then when i finally thought i knew all about MS, i started to read some more.

      i encourage you to get your friends and family to learn everything they can. you should read as well. information is power.

      there are so many choices for new MS patients. Hope for a better future but that future requires knowledge of your choices.

      its not the same as meeting in person, but with the internet, you are never alone.

      best of luck.

        Hi Eric!

        It is hard for parents to understand, especially when they haven't seen/met anyone with MS before.

        Welcome to this board where you are among people who totally understand

            I just want to meet people my age... Everyone that has MS around her are nowhere near my age

            It is very hard to be honest

              Hi Eric, I'm 22 been diagnosed for about 2 years now but suffering from MS for a few years before that. It is a very lonesome road we tread.
              I choose to live and to grow, take and give and to move, learn and love and to cry, kill and die and to be paranoid and to lie, hate and fear and to do what it takes to move through.
