My mother is almost 54 years old, and she's been suffering with MS since she were 17 years old.
But for last few months, I've been dealing with some mental health issues and because of that I've caused my mom nothing but misery and heartache, can somebody please help us?

Hi Andrew, I am so sorry you are going through this. I live w/MS and it is difficult. I would contact the National Multiple Sclerosis Society and ask to speak to a navigator. Say you need some respite care so you can tend to your own urgent health needs. MS can cause emotional lability, or mood swings, so perhaps she is not as capable of expressing gratitude as she should be. On her behalf, sorry but it may not be totally in her control. Reach out to family members and also see if Medicare or insurance can help with a home health aide. Get some "you" time in to take a walk, socialize with friends, take a nap, or read.
