I am so sorry you are feeling down. I know I have had my down times too. MS sure does separate true friends and family fairly quick. I used to have a large circle of friends and now I believe it is down to under 8 that I see or offer to help me. My 2 daughters have distanced themselves from me like I have the plague. My husband is my hero! We have our times, but in his own way, he is always there for me. I lighten my load almost every evening when I read a few pages from one of my many bibles. I know the Lord has a plan for each of us and acceptance will bring peace. You will always have your MS family right here. Hugs to you, luvhair

luvhair If you have a minister or pastor to pray with, or just go to a church you are comfortable with, pray with them and give this MS monster to God- For the Lord has a plan for each of us, I can say I prayed with my pastor, even before I had a definite diagnosis. It has lightened my burden even though I still have my times.. It does help. Hugs, Lynn

@luvhair

I hear you about being/feeling alone. Even in a crowd, we can feel alone. Perhaps there might be an MS group nearby. This is a long shot, but check out your local library πŸ“š and their section of Ms books. I was doing that and met an older than me lady that has MS. We sat st a table and discussed Ms. We are cordual friends and see each other at the library. It helps to know That there are others near & far that share your feelings. Keep coming back here, for we can be your MS family. πŸ˜ŠπŸ’• Lynn

I think we all have gone through this at some time. Some of us sooner rather than later. This is what we can expect from this condition. In all honesty, we scare people, perhaps more than we scare ourselves. We have no choice, merely to accept others weaknesses, perhaps not understand them, but to accept them. Just acknowledge the betrayal and keep moving forward along your ms life path.

Turn from them and let them go, wish them the best and you move forward for you. Do what is best for you, that is what is important. Not meeting others expectations and wishes.

There are dreams and tasks that you must fulfil. Accept that they will not walk with you, but my friend, chin up. Remember them for what they were once and you keep moving.

ms is "DOABLE" but not for all.

You have gotten some expert advice luvhair πŸ’• I can only think of 1other, you can't change anyone but yourself. πŸ€—

It's sad that it happens, when we lose friends and family, sometimes because they don't understand, or they are scared. Heck half the time we don't know how to explain itπŸ™Š.

Hang in there! We gotcha!πŸ€—πŸ’•

I am sorry you are going through this luvhair A lot of us have gone through it or are going through it now. Once I was unable to work or drive a lot of people distanced themselves. I know who I can count on now. Glad you have a good friend that helps you.

Your not alone in this. I began to realize who was a "True" friend. Family - well they will now have to realize they can no longer expect you to do everything - it's a hard pill for them to swallow and it's one They need to take.

Please don't feel bad. It's a natural reaction to what people go thru who are

in our MS Family. If you're too tired to go to the store you can go on your computer and order things on line.

At first I felt bad that I had to do that but I want to take the best care of myself and family as I can.

Best Regards,

Leslie

luvhair,

I also like Whole Foods. Do you have Instacart.com? They deliver from Whole Foods. Peadpod.com

and RocheBrothers.com deliver similar items.

Yes, it sucks. No one understands. Talk to your neurologist. Talk to a therapist. Love yourself. Good luck!

Luvhair-I am sorry you’ve not had your family help and support you since MS. That must be so hard to deal with and it’s not fair they are not there for you in return. Nikki
