I take anti anxiety meds on top of antidepressants fibromyalgia. The chronic pain along with fatigue is making me very anxious and worrisome about my future. Anti anxiety meds help some. Maybe you can ask for anti anxiety meds if you haven’t done already.

Having an MS diagnosis is, by definition, upsetting. I hope you are keeping up with all doctor appointments and prescribed medicines. In addition I think that seeing a therapist and/or a psychiatrist on an ongoing basis may help you deal with the emotions which a difficult diagnosis brings up. There are also support groups for people with MS which would be helpful.
