Multiple sclerosis can impact many aspects of daily life, including how we experience time. For some, days filled with fatigue and exhaustion feel never-ending, while others find time slipping away because tasks take longer, requiring more breaks and recovery periods.
👉 How has MS changed your perception of time? Do certain days feel especially long or short? Why?
👉 Has it affected how you handle appointments, schedules, or routines?
👉 Do you feel frustrated or pressured because you can’t do as much as before?
👉 How do you use your time more efficiently or make your days more enjoyable?
Whether you now value time differently, feel like it’s constantly slipping away, or believe MS has completely changed your sense of time, we’d love to hear your experiences. Let’s share insights and ideas to make everyday life more mindful and fulfilling! 💬😊
To be honest it's not something i have thought about, but it is a good question. I know have to write down appointments in the calender on my phone with alarms as my memory isn't as.it was. Or to do lists are my new favourite 😆. Now that I think about it there are not enough hours in the day to do things as it takes me longer to do housework. Night time is longer though as I don't sleep well, so its a mixed bag for me regarding perception of time. Trying to plan ahead I find helpful although it doesn't always work it does help sometimes. Keep strong warriors we live to tell our tale another day

Hello everyone! 😊
