something specific?

I’m struggling with the thoughts of when I want to start trying for a baby next year. I’m in college and graduate in September and I always said I wanted to start trying once I’m finished college but now that I’m on Gilenya everything has to be planned. Ideally I don’t want to finish college off my ...

Hi Everyone, Monday, June 29, 2020. 3:00pm. Dr. Mark Skeen, Chief Clinical Neurologist of Duke Health in Durham, NC looks at me and said, "Yes, today's two MRI's confirm my suspicions.

I don't know if anyone else feels like this, but over the past couple of months I feel lethargic, down and very teary. It's like everything I do, I hit a brick wall and don't want to continue.

Happy Tuesday everyone! So I was really chuffed yesterday, I went out on the board for the first time in a year. The family and I love going to Sandbanks and we had a good day in the harbour. I was nervous, because last year, my brother and I (Identical twin) went for a swim and I realised very qu...

I know it's a 'different' post, but I need your help and / or advice. for my ex-fiancée I turned my back on all my acquaintances, I sold my house, I did everything to make her happy, but she left me in 2017 and now I don't have anyone to even talk to, not even family. I need a friend or acquaintance...

Hi all, what’s the lowdown on stairlifts? Is the consensus to get one? I am very fortunate to have enough rooms in my house to make a bedroom downstairs & we are having our large utility/ cloakroom converted into a wetroom. I’m undecided whether to get a stairlift as well to prolong my sleeping ...

Sorry in advance ... I just need to vent a little and I thought this would be the right place. It's nice to have a group of people that know what you're going through. I'm seriously on the struggle bus. I've been deemed "high risk" for covid so I've been exiled from my home and banished to my nanna'...
