I realize that many of us don't actively post because of symptoms, such as fatigue and more. Though I still learn something almost daily, I've come to realize I participate mainly because of the friendships formed over the past four years.

There is no pressure to post or respond to posts, but I hope everyone will participate to form friendships, as well as find information or share information. Interaction is how we slowly build those good relationships. I can't believe what great friends I've found here. You all are the best!

I can't agree with you more! Even though I have support from friends and family, they really don't get it. So it's nice to be able to talk to someone who does. I really like the diversity of people here from all over the world. I am very grateful for this forum.

Same here Erin. Honestly since I don’t get out much these day almost all of my friends are here.

Here I don’t have to hear arguing and negativity only uplifting and encouraging comments and I thank all of you my ms family for always being here for me.

Love to all and God bless.

I find sharing my craft and how I am doing with this new medicine helps me cope with my MS. I don't always respond to post I read but I do get a good education from what I read and I thank all of you for the inspiration, information and the support that is given here.

As a person that has always avoided the likes of FB since I have a very low tolerance ignorance and hate, I was very hesitant to join this group, but I can tell you 100% that I made the right decision to do so. Friends are something we all need and I have found so many here, they even tolerate my bad humor!
