Me too Jappy!

Whenever I read a thread like this one it brings up heaps of memories, but why do the bad always seem to outweigh the good? Why do they take over so you can't remember the good bits?

I assure you I do have some happy memories from the past few years, but what went before always seems to lurk....always seems to overshadow.

Maybe one day......

Maybe the memories of the less than happy times makes us appreciate the good times even more.

A great thread and some enlightening replies.

From what I read, 'most' of us are worriers. Myself included (and I would even put myself forward for the Biggest worry wart), I dwell on the past and my mistakes and my attitude and my dissapointments in my path to where I am today.

I would say that not one day passes when I don't worry or regret something from my past that I can dredge up with ease from the front of my mind. There's always a bucket load of stuff close to hand and ready for my re-hash and examination.

If stress is a major factor toward the progression of MS, are we all more susceptible due to the very nature of our worrying and ability to continually worry???
whereas my partner, for example, not only does he not worry about the past but its all so unimportant that its gone from his memory. So laid back he's horizontal.
