RE: Multiple Sclerosis: it's all in my head

in #health7 years ago

This is a hugely personal share, and you're brave not only in sharing it, but also in your struggles to retain as much of your health as you can with a degenerative disease. I'm so glad to hear that the challenge of figuring out the Steemit platform has helped you to stay as sharp as possible.

Thank you for saying so. I wanted to share as most people don't think of the psychological problems with MS, usually just the physical.

I couldn't agree more! Most people do only think of the physical, but when it comes to neurodegenerative diseases, there are GOING to be psychological changes beyond the emotional stress of having the disease. It's important to have these symptoms out in discussion, so that they can be encompassed in how you care for yourself.
