MS is beginning to win.
I am feeling that this "MS" is winning. It is starting to take over my life. I am not the same person that I used to be. I am beginning to feel as if I don't even know her anymore. I was always the happy, smiling, go to person when you needed a positive word but, now getting a smile out can be difficult. I just don't know what to do. I recently stopped working because of the anxiety I was feeling each and everyday. Somedays I would be perfectly happy and the next I could be a physical and emotional wreck. I have been married for 17 years and my husband recently told me "I don't know who you are anymore. You need to get yourself better". The problem is I don't know how to do it, which just depresses me. I have pain most days and forget things often. It is very hard to deal with. Does anyone have any ideas?

Diana....I think we all are pretty much alike in more ways than we realize. You took a major step in realizing you have a problem with depression, and to mix ms in there is a double whammy.
I feel like I don\'t know who I am at times either. I was going thru major emotional rollercoaster mood swings, until I got on right med. Even on meds I have not so good days. I hope you get back to feeling better and soon.
Diana...sometimes seeing a hycolist that understands MS can help. I was seeing one for a bit and it really helped.
