I read that people under lot of stress, especially if they aren't expressing (and are internalising) their emotions, have higher risk of developing autoimmune diseases

If you suffered a lot of head trauma, you might want to ask your MS doctor. I used to work for Women’s Refuge, here in California. I was a registered domestic violence/sexual assault advocate. Took four weeks of training. I am glad to know you have had counseling.

Thanks again for all the new hugs. I get email notifications, but once I log in here many of them have disappeared. This is whether I come in thru a link or through the email itself. I might need a new device. (Yeah,yeah,blame it on the phone. lol)

I wonder about that myself. Any kind of abuse is very stressful. I think that the stress may make the MS worse.

So sorry JoanneHorton . Ty for sharing.
