My MS has been particular bad lately. I chose to quit working for the good of everyone, although this will not be a great choice for my family. I am trying to gain disability through SS, but that may be many months. I am trying to keep my chin up, but that is difficult. I feel like I have let my family down and I am worthless. Don't know what to do next. Just trying to do my best around the house to make everything as easy on my wife as I can.

It\'s great that you\'re picking up some responsibility around the house to help out, but please don\'t let yourself fall into the feeling worthless trap. It\'s tough to stop working, especially if you thrive on being in the workplace, so it\'s an easy trap to fall into. I have a tough time too when I\'m not working, and it\'s something I still struggle with. I hope your family\'s appreciation for what you are doing for them at home helps you when you feel you\'re falling into the funk.
