Angry New/returning MS member

Hi everyone! I last visited this on-line group in 2010, but have not been back due to life circumstances (major move from one state to another). I am having a really hard time now. I have had MS since 1989 and the progression has made life really hard. I am finally coming to terms with the fact that I no longer have RRMS and the survival tools that worked then do not work now. I am getting over an upper respiratory virus that knocked me on my back for going on 10 days now. When I had a fever in the beginning I experienced temporary worsening of my symptoms and could not walk or use my right hand. That has since subsided but I am so tired now and spend a lot of time in bed. Not sure how to crawl out of this emotional black hole. My kids are at camp and my husband is back at work after a bout of double pneumonia. I had a preview of us as old retired folks and it was NOT pleasant. My support network is non-existent since we moved back to CT last year. Help! How have others coped when life turns really dark?
