HELP

[Felicityd]

I suffer from anxiety and panic attacks I have recently been diagnosed with MS so feel overwhelmd not coping at all. Have been put on propranolol but I'm not eating or sleeping.

That is so rough. How is your support system? How far has the MS progressed? I have to go but who wouldn't be in shock? Keep on touch!

Thanks for your reply I have RRMS so hopefully not going to progress to bring in a wheel chair. Hope to catch up soon

good that it is RRMS. I don't know where you live, but I always think it is good to find the best possible doctor, preferably at a teaching hospital, even if you have to travel a bit. I think, also, that its is normal to feel shocked. After a while MS will become the "new normal" for you and you will adjust. I don't mean this in a nasty way - just that my experience is that eventually you adjust even to difficult circumstances if they can't be changed.

You're not alone, I was also recently diagnosed with MS, I just started taking medication for my anxiety and depression.

How are you getting on with the meds?
