I'm not real good at the warm fuzzies either. I'm trying, but still. Just know that it's not just you who feels out of control like that. Things getting to you, the crying.
It's not just the ice pack, it's that last straw on top of all the other stuff you're dealing with.
One thing to keep in mind is that however ms is doing you now, it probably will change course. It's like the weather, unpredictable, which can be bad, but can be good too.
I was dx'd with c spine issues and a syrinx in '04 and I was a mess. I felt so hopeless, because they couldn't fix me and nobody wanted to believe my symptoms, much less help me. Felt like I was falling. I was crying all the time which was not like me at all.
I'm still learning. How much is too much? When to push, when to rest? It's tough. You learn it over and over every day, because it's a new game it seems. You learn about priorities, and you do what you absolutely have to do first. I learned that was NOT the cleaning, LOL.
Don't be so hard on yourself for feeling the way you feel, okay? Anybody would, in your shoes.
