Its no secret to anyone that I have Multiple Sclerosis, I have never and will never hide it from anyone because it is part of me, you either accept it or you dont, and if you choose not to it's your problem not mine :-)
But I am sick of people with MS looking for sympathy and wanting people to feel sorry for them, I know I am probably going to get a load of shit for this post and tbh I don't really care, I use instagram a lot, and it had become a huge source of support for me, I have met some amazing people who are always there when I need someone to talk to and those people have helped me through a tough year for which I wil be forever grateful.
But all you have to do is search #multiplesclerosis and instagram opens up a whole new world, some good, and some rubbish because as I said its people looking for sympathy Multiple Sclerosis is what it is, it's life changing I get that, because it's changed my life too, but instead of moaning and complaining about the things you can't do anymore and everything tha tMultiple Sclerosis has taken away from you, take some time to focus on the things that you still have and the things that you can still do. And then when you have realised how much you still have, then you can focus on finding new ways of doing things that you are now finding difficult, adapt and make the best out of a bad situation.
I have MS but because I have learnt to do the above MS will never have me.
