Social connections are critical to health. This study shows that the invisible symptoms of MS may stand in the way of people’s ability to make those connections.
Are these invisible symptoms affecting your participation in common social roles?

Hi, my name is PenguinOnTheSpectrum. I want to express my struggles and challenges with the system and explain the battles I have faced with having autism and EUPD. I hope to one day write a book to explain my experiences and journey and show younger people that a difficult upbringing and the barriers that come with them does not need to result in a life sentence of misery.

Hi, my name is Lurashusband95. I'm here because I'm tired of seeing tears from the pain of Fibromyalgia in my wife's eyes. Does anyone have any HELP? Thanks!!
We put so much pressure on ourselves to always be positive that we start believing there’s something wrong with us the moment we feel sad, anxious, frustrated, or overwhelmed. But emotions aren’t signs that you’re failing. They’re signs that you’re human.
One of the biggest turning points in my own recovery was realizing that healing didn’t begin when I finally felt happy. It began when I stopped fighting every uncomfortable emotion and started listening to what those feelings were trying to tell me. Pain isn’t always something to get rid of as quickly as possible. Sometimes it’s a signal that something in our lives needs attention, compassion, or change.
You don’t have to pretend you’re okay to be making progress. You don’t have to smile through the hardest days to prove you’re strong. Real healing comes from being honest with yourself, treating yourself with kindness, and trusting that no emotion lasts forever.
What emotion have you been giving yourself permission to feel lately?
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:

The Baylor College of Medicine Maxine Mesinger MS Clinic is conducting a research study gathering the opinions of individuals living with MS. The study is being conducted to improve MS care, patient health, and quality of life by individuals providing their opinions on their own MS care. After an initial virtual 15-20 minutes to consent and complete baseline surveys, you will be electronically alerted for completion of a 5- to 10-minute survey every 3 months. Participation is 100% virtual. If you are interested, please email Tahari at tgriffin@bcm.edu with your name, address, gender, birthdate and current age, ethnicity/race, & telephone number.
