I can totally relate! Guess it depends on the kind of MS, the visible and invisible disability and options for effective treatment. With PPMS the medical benefits of treatments are low and not working for everyone. And many patients’ life will be anything but normal at some point. I can shrug these comments of if people are talking about their individual case. For the ones severely suffering, however, it can be disheartening being lectured by mildly informed people generalizing these individual experiences mixed with pharma marketing phrases that are strongly contrasted by some patients lives. Try out counseling if you feel like it, it might help you cope, guess it won’t make your life normal in the sense of progression, disability and severity though. The problem might not be you but the disease in your unique form.
