His moods are terrible, his anger outbursts are awful, his silent treatment and the way he just doenst care about anyone, he says such nasty things about people, im very much isolated now due to this but he wasnt this bad b4 he was diagnosed, he had traits but now hes so much worse, he doesnt love me n says he doesn’t care about anybody not even his daughter. Has anyone else experienced this with a partener or have these symptoms of ms?

Hi, i understand what youre going through im in a similar situation with my other half. I didnt know it was gonna be like this. Im so sorry youre experiencing this also.
Have you tried the MS helpline? Thats my next step.
I just wanted to say, youre not alone here. Someones going through a similar situation somewher.
In such cases, you need professional help. Don’t hesitate to get it.
On the other hand, check also if he’s a spiritual narcissist. That should help in therapy. Read this article for signs of being one.
I recently read an article which suggests narcissism is can be a form of disguised depression.
As a long time MS sufferer it may explain the mood swings, insomnia and loss of appetite, there was I thinking depression was only thoughts of doom and gloom when clearly there’s more to it than just that.

Some of my lesions are right in the areas that control mood/behaviour/self control and I’ve seen massive personality changes. I have postnatal depression but now the perimental team are leaning towards it being lesion induced or at least exacerbated by it. It must be terrible being on the flip side of how I behave sometimes so I really feel for you. Im having an assessment to see what’s going on and maybe he needs one too? I feel knowledge is power in my case I may never be able to “cure” but I’m certainly going to see what treatment I can have.
