I just wish people would take my reasons for what they're worth and not feel like they're entitled to a detailed explanation. I'm an adult....I can decide for myself if I feel like doing something or going somewhere. I don't need to hear "well, I'm tired, too" or how going somewhere will make me feel better. If that worked I'd be going somewhere all the time!

I think people mean well.......but those that don't have MS truly, truly do not get it. I don't have arthritis and don't presume to know how someone with it feels. If they tell me they can't do something I take that and don't push it any farther. Who am I to say what they can and can't do (comfortably).
