Feelings

[RoseySawyer]

Good Morning! How's everyone? I'm great this morning. Lately I have been feeling down but I'm trying to look at the bright side. It's hard to look at the bright side when I don't really know why I feel down. 😕 Could it be my MS???

Hi sunshine! 😊Sure it could be your MS, or the weather, or the full moon.

The important thing is you recogized it.😊 Now to fix it. Talk to your health care team, if you think it's out of control.

Surround yourself with with things that make you happy! And people that make you happy.💕

And know we are here to! 🤗💕

Find something fun to do today. If you can't get out, I get a pick me up by searching Google for colorful pictures to paint. Color always makes me happy. It usually takes me to Pinterest. Or, you can eat chocolate. That always works @jimeka

[RoseySawyer in reply to Iona60]

Thank you and I think chocolate is a road I'm taking today! 😊

[jimeka in reply to RoseySawyer]

Who mentioned chocolate? Am I invited?

[Iona60 in reply to jimeka]

Do to have a chocolate factory in your town? We have a store from one up the street from our house. I told my husband that he doesn't have an excuse for a present anymore. I'll take chocolate for every occasion.

[jimeka in reply to Iona60]

I may just have to buy a house down your street!

Yes because MS causes anxiety and depression.

I love your positivity and I’m sure you can get through anything with it 😍😃🙏

Thank you

I'm glad that you mentioned anxiety. I've read in this months Motivator that 50 percent of msers have anxiety. I've also read they this is the most undiagnosed symptom and no one talks about it.

[CloverPrincess in reply to Iona60]

For sure! I’d think more than 50 percent tbh

I’m sorry you’ve been feeling blue. I think chronic illness can bring us into periods of feeling blue that are different from actual depression. I hope you talk to your doctor if the usual remedies don’t help (like meaningful social interactions, volunteering, exercise, doing something you love, finding ways to reduce stress), or if this feeling continues for long.

I’ll be praying that some sunshine and chocolate are all you need.

It is one of those things I haven’t been feeling that much better lately. So many things to do but when you can’t do much about them You feel or should I say I feel down. It’s hard for me to make Drs’s appointment when you don’t have transportation.

[RoseySawyer in reply to ssdw1958]

If I stayed your way I would transport youm 😊

I like that you can get your situation out there and get some happy resolutions. I believe that the weather has something to do with all of us at one time or another. I’m happier with nice weather. I had a few times when I feel down and don’t know why! Doing something for yourself usually works and doesn’t add calories like chocolate 🍫 does. 😊. Hope your doing better today.
