Personal Feelings

When your MS flares up, whether you've been recently diagnosed or are having a relapsing episode, you are likely to feel emotional changes, as well as physical symptoms. Even something like thinking about MS and your future can raise a host of questions and concerns. This is all perfectly normal.

This section looks at the many personal emotions that you may face during different phases of your journey with MS—from coming to terms with the disease, to ways that you can cope with your emotions and alleviate the stress of MS. There is even a section on important things to remember when thinking about your future.
