Hi, my name is SuperRabbit01017. I'm here because I have just recovered repressed memories and feel alone and like I am coming undone.

Balance is strength.

Many people think they have to choose between being strong or kind, confident or humble. But real emotional strength comes from balance. It’s about knowing when to stand your ground and when to let go, when to speak up and when to listen. The more aware you become of your behavior and your reactions, the more control you have over how you show up in different situations.

Which one do you find hardest to balance: being kind without being passive, or being strong without being harsh?

Also, if you're going through a tough time right now, I want you to know that I post daily mental health videos about how to deal with painful thoughts. So if you or anyone you know is struggling and wants help, click on one of the links below or write me if you have any questions you want me to answer:

A Sister's Love: Sylvia Lawry placed an ad in the N.Y. Times looking for others with MS like her brother Bernard.

It led to her starting the MS Society, 80 years ago this month. “She went where she needed to go, talked to who she needed to talk to and didn’t take no for an answer and did that because she believed we needed to find a cure for her brother,” says Dr. Tim Coetzee, president of the MS Society.

Lawry's MS Society is now the world's largest private funder of MS research, playing a part in every one of more than 20 current treatments for the disease. It also provides free supports and info to 1 million in the US living with MS and their families. "Think of the scores of people that were impacted by the work she did. It’s remarkable," Coetzee says.

Sylvia Lawry died in 2001 at age 85. “I really believed this would be a short-term undertaking,” Lawry said in her biography, 'Courage: The Story of the Mighty Effort to End the Devastating Effects of Multiple Sclerosis,' by Richard Trubo. “Of course, I was wrong.”

Wondering if you could have MS?

Multiple sclerosis is a complex disease that can be difficult to diagnose. Andrew Solomon, MD, neurologist and professor at the University of Vermont MS Center, explains what to expect during the MS diagnostic process, lists key questions to ask your healthcare provider and offers advice on how to make sure you get the answers you need to move forward.

Hi, my name is Energizer. I'm undiagnosed and I wanted to mention the symptoms I have been experiencing and a timeline of them in case anyone else has experienced similar symptoms or has any advice for me. (My username comes from the fact that I used to have a lot of energy before this happened). In late 2023 and early 2024, I began experiencing thinning skin on my hands, as well as increased redness and stinging sensations. I also experienced tingling and stinging sensations in my groin and upper back. After six weeks, the groin and upper back sensations seemingly resolved. But then, in late 2024, the groin and upper back sensations returned and I also began experiencing occasional neck spasms. Then in late 2025, I began experiencing upper back spasms which radiated into my arms at times. In the autumn of 2025, I also began experiencing itching in all of the affected areas, which has steadily increased until the present.

I have been seeing doctors since late 2024 when I thought this could be serious, but so far the only specialist I have been referred to is a neurologist without a diagnosis to this point. Cervical radiculopathy, pernicious anemia, most autoimmune disorders (due to a negative ANA test) and vitamin deficiencies have now been ruled out. I was placed on a prednisone taper recently, but that only exacerbated the symptoms. I am very much at a loss, and based on how this is seemingly progressing, I don't know what is going to happen to me if this isn't diagnosed and treated soon.
