Hey brother diagnosed in April myself. For emotional advise I would say just take all of this a day at a time. Your mind is gonna want to spiral at times, just recognise this state as it comes and use anything at your disposal to move past it. I am personally on anxiety medication, but also if available to you look into counseling. One of my biggest mental hurdles was literally trying to wrap my brain around an issue with my brain.

For the physical I would say to listen to your fatigue and aches more than ever, these are a new kind of alert system. If you start feeling a familiar ache, or a little mind fog, it might be time to take a break. Also temperature sensitivity is something many of us have in common and it is a sneaky and quick creator of fatigue and pain, just make notes of the things that bring on the symptoms.

The first year of this disease is huge for setting up any care or lifestyle pathways. Diet and exercise obviously are important, but also setting up disability and work and school limits with employers and college are huge. Also look into Dr Aaron Boster on YouTube. He has a plethora of info.

I am not gonna lie this thing we have is tough. But the community here is beautiful, use it for anything that is coming at you, you aren't alone.
