What does MS fatigue feel like?

[@hue9514]

When I try to explain to people about fatigue the response I usually get is "I feel like that as well" this video explains it a lot more in detail. I showed it to my manager and he immediately asked is there anything he could do.

The people know nothing of this 'fatigue' I will do a little of walking n rest abit ....as long as i m active the whole day....the tiredness is too persistent n u have to take care or u can lose balance I have ms n people will mock u n gossip about u but will not help u There r few good people out there Many r fake n will make fun of u once they know ur condition

Everything I do feels like the hardest thing I've ever had to do. People think I'm exaggerating or am just lazy.. it's completely demoralizing and emasculating. I don't know if I can continue to live like this.. 😒

I looked up ms fatigue because I was trying to explain to my family what happened to me over the weekend. My body just shut down. I couldn't move. All I did was clean my house, showered and got dress. Then I conked out. I layed in one place for 3 hours unable to move.

I’ve pretty much stopped trying to explain to others how I’m feeling, as, inevitably, they say they have the same issues. It’s a contest I no longer want to participate in.

[@mstrust]

That's so true. It can be really frustrating to share how you feel with others, especially if they don't have the same first hand experience as you. 💙

Yes I’d describe it similarly like walking through sand but the sand is up to my hips and I’m trying to push through it, sometimes I have to physically pick up my legs with my arms to move them forward. I know some exercises will help but when I’m so tired I can’t bring myself to do them it’s a vicious circle. I get angry with myself as I can’t do things I want to do

[@mstrust]

Thank you for sharing your experiences. Sending you best wishes from the MS Trust 💙

every "body" is different . i start a task with productive intentions . quickly all "fuel" is spent . exhaustion starts a domino effect on all symptoms . physical and especially mental . it's difficult to explain it in words or even to understand it myself but when one foot literally refuses to go in front of the other regardless of your minds intentions . it is strange frustrating and ... disheartening ?

[@mstrust]

Thank you so much for sharing. So many people in the MS community will resonate with your message 💙

Being stuck in quicksand😢 that is me😢 Day in day out ongoing battle with myself...losing but sometimes winning....for a short while but uts worth it🥰

[@CURRENTCHAOS22]

I have been diagnosed with fibromylga. But my symptoms mirror MS. does anyone get bombarded written off left

[@RaidONE4theONE]

Then you probably should get checked for MS.

[@Jess-kn8vl]

Ask to do an entire spine MRI. Mine would have been found 8 years sooner if they would have done a cervical thoracic MRI as well. This would be worth having to pay a large amount just to find out or at least have a baseline!

[@MyDoppleganger20]

I get so tired I swear I feel as though I get cross-eyed

[@mstrust]

💙💙💙

[@winniecash1654]

I do get cross eyed. I have a lazy eye which I can focus when I'm not tired. But when I'm tired I am unable to focus it with the other eye. 😢

[@mstrust]

💙💙💙

"I feel like the ground bulling me down"i said to ppl cuz I was tired...I don't think they got it it's not normal tired it's I'm going to kiss the floor tired.

[@sherryblatt4459]

It’s not a normal tired!!! It’s like a bad dream that you hope to wake up from but it never goes away even after a full nights sleep! You feel worse trying to get up and start your day than you did when you went to bed!😢 prayers for all of you suffering from this disorder! Keep going and walking whether you want to Or not! It helps sometimes knowing that you accomplished something!! Dear Jesus please help them all that are suffering from this debilitating disease!! It’s not what you want for them and I ask you in Jesus’s precious name I pray, AMEN🙏❤️✝️
