Helplessness

Oh what a feeling to have a invisible disease well that can be invisible. Feeling like hell all the time, no energy, no hope, no future?

Yes we could all scream at times and yes we are helpless to an extent. I have learned something very important over the last few days. We are not MS and MS is not us. We define ourselves the disease does not.

Do not let this thing called MS win. Fight and take no prisoners in doing so.

Wishing you all the best.

Thanks for posting this - the worst thing about bad days is that they creep up on you without warning.

That which does not kill you, Only makes you stronger. I am trying to be positive and stop worrying about what could be. I could be hit by a truck tommorow, so if I feel good today I am going to count my blessings.

I like "I am not MS and MS is not me" almost as much as MS is my bitch! I need to shift to these kinds of positive or else mantras to get out of feeling sorry for myself.

Feeling helpless is OK but feeling HOPELESS is not.

But it is hard to remember a day without MS.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
