Strength in vulnerability

Coming out .. again

So .. this for some reason feels harder than coming out as Gay.. right .. I’ve been semi in the closet with my head buried in the sand for a long time now just because I’ve felt a bit embarrassed maybe? Or maybe I’ve just been a bit chicken and worried that people would think differently of me or judge me.. so I hide things as much as I can so people don’t find out or know too much (including the people closest to me)
but now I feel like it’s such a variable condition with so many things that can happen to you involved with it that it’s important to share your personal stories about your experiences with MS, starting with me growing a pair of furry dice and stop being ashamed of something that’s nothing to be ashamed about..

Often I’m suffering with things and I’m confused why people don’t get it but I guess it’s my own fault because I’m a closed book and it’s important not to push people away when I feel there’s something freeing about coming clean,
The hope is that even if one person can relate to any of these things it would bring them comfort knowing they’re not alone,

I know myself I’d take something from it just because it’s such an isolating thing to suffer with and the only way to slightly curb that is for people to share their stories and be more open about it, I cant expect people to do that without sharing my own stories too..

So here goes… hi my name is Lauren Jamie Fairlie I’m 28 and I was diagnosed in 2010 with relapse and remitting Multiple Sclerosis

Whether this interests you or not is fine.. scroll on haha
But if it does then I hope you enjoy & maybe even just get a laugh out of it or two as well..

I will post as often as I can (most likely just when I have something to say) seems fair

Peace ✌🏽
