Mood Changes and Multiple Sclerosis: Understanding Depression

Me too. Sometimes I want just disappears. I got hurted by small things. It really hurts and then I flight with my husband. Later, I feel bad because he hasn't done nothing to deserve that, he is a good man. MS make you go crazy. :(

Thank you for this video. I suffer from this and it's difficult when you are around people who don't understand the symptoms of M.S. I have been considering joining an M.S. support group lately❤

I live with ocd and depression since i was a kid, and in 2016 i was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, living with both mental illness and ms is torture, i don't know what to do, and no one understand me, i am not talking any medication, i am tired of working, i am too exhausted to do my hobbies, i am single and never been in a relationship, and i am having sexual problems because of my ms. I am so lost and tired, i feel like i am getting old without any accomplishments in life.

In this case, depression feels like a very deep tiredness of the brain. You simply can't do anything else then sleep.

Sometimes i just don'twant to live anymore :(

Got the thoughts just now along as I talk and have a discussion I get to be mentally better until next time 😞

I can’t say I’m depressed but I’m very emotional and sad, someones action and word can make me cry 🤦🏻‍♀️sometimes I have very negative emotions with I can’t control, it’s very hard and I hate myself in such condition , thank God it doesn’t continue couple months

I feel like I want to give my self a hug and tell her I’m sorry and I understand you 💔 my heart aches I hope everyone is ok ❤ sending you prayers and love

Was going to watch but almost started crying. I’m only 26 seconds in. Shits hard.

I’ve had ms ever since I was Eleven years old & right now it’s a battle because I know it’s all in my head but it’s hard.

I am hugely currently battling with this 😭😭

I tried to commit suicide and spent 7months in the hospital icu step down unit then the psych hospital I had ECT there r days I just don’t want to b here or do it anymore but I’m doing better I just have to get up everyday and do something-anything and I have my dogs

This is a good informational video.

It is nice to know we're not alone

I was diagnosed in 2004 and naturally was very anxious and depressed following the news. As time when on and I realized there were ways to control symptoms and slow the progression. It now 2016 and my depression and anxiety has become more frequent and the bouts last longer, up to weeks and months at times. Also, the anxiety has increased into full blown panic attacks. These are completely terrifying. My Dr. recently added Xanax to my numerous daily drugs. I take Prozac for the depression and have started taking the Xanax as needed. I'm worried this will continue to get worse as my disease progresses. I am 54 and still get around fairly well. I don't go shopping, my groceries are delivered I have a monthly cleaning lady that's helps with the heavy cleaning of my home. I rarely go out at all and prefer to stay home in my safe place. Can I expect this to continue or is there hope it can improve?

I don't feel depressed but was told by the cognitive nero tester at Kessler that I am

Ironic how depressing this fact is for us.

is behaving like an asshole and pushing your family away possibly linked to ms related depression?

Im just waiting to die

I think depression is the root cause of MS and also a result of it.
