Isolation

msER, "YOU" are brand new or "YOU" have been around awhile, it does not really matter which. We can all tumble into this, and as "YOU" travel along your ms path, "YOU" will be amazed by how quickly "YOU" start to spiral down. We are a social species and we need contact with others for our own mental wellbeing. I know "YOU" do not want to become the crazy cat lady or that scary grumpy old man.

Sometimes "YOU" may feel that "YOU" have nothing to offer anymore, but "YOU" have access to a wealth of information, the ability to learn new things, to experience the wonders of this, our world, and this our species.

There is no need for "YOU" ever to be isolated and alone. Go out of your way to be excessively polite. Ask the bagger at the grocery store how their day is, go to the end of the line at the grocery store, ask the butcher about that cut of meat.

Interact with people, Animals are fantastic but they do not talk back. "YOU" have to interact, do not shut yourself away and hide from the world.

Relapsing-Remitting ms is no reason for us to miss the wonder of "YOU" share "YOU" with us, make our day better for having met "YOU"

RoyceNewton,

Excellent post!

When out and about, I try to have a conversation with at least 1 person. It might be people working at the grocery store, a neighbor, etc. It is nice. I agree with you, do not isolate yourself from life!

Keep smiling,

Carole :-D

BTW How is your book writing coming along?

I think what you said was great but, for me, I do not think my interactions with the random public would be advised. When I must interact with strangers or public in general, I have a mantra of "Be Nice." I can be short with people (they irritate me).

understood, at least you are having an interaction, it does not have to be very long
