Learning to say no without feeling guilty... is that ever possible?
Living with MND hasn't given me all the answers, but one thing it has taught me is that energy isn't just physical. It's emotional too. I used to think saying yes made me a good person. I wanted to help, be reliable, and not let anyone down. Looking back, I wish I'd understood sooner that there's a difference between saying yes because you genuinely want to... and saying yes because you feel guilty saying no. Those two things can look the same from the outside, but they feel very different on the inside. These days, before I commit to something, I'll often check in with myself and ask "can I do this without resenting it later?". It's a simple question, but it's helped me become much more honest about what I realistically have the capacity for. 💬 What's one thing you've become better at saying "no" to over the years?

Well said Sanjog. Time to check in with our own boundaries to see if saying yes will keep us on track. Of late I’ve been saying no to my adult kids requests due to poor communication on their part. Asking me at last minute for non urgent help = no.

Success is bravely tackling my fears head on
Embrace Change: Turning Transitions into Triumphs
Change is a constant in life. To build resilience: - Accept and Adapt: Acknowledge emotions and adjust. - Seek Opportunities: Find growth in new situations. - Stay Connected: Lean on your support network. ______________________________ I remember when I was first diagnosed with MND - talk about a massive life change! At first, it felt like my world had been flipped upside down. But as I started embracing the change (instead of fighting it), I discovered new strengths, new perspectives, and even new opportunities I never imagined. Here’s what helped me: - I gave myself space to feel the emotions, but I didn’t let them define me. - Losing my physical abilities led me to discover new ways to inspire, teach, and connect with amazing people like YOU! - My support system has been EVERYTHING. I wouldn’t be here without my incredible family, friends and carers who lift me up. Now, I’d love to hear from you! What’s a change you’ve faced recently, and how did you turn it into a triumph? Let’s support and inspire each other! Drop your stories in the comments.

I’ve. Been struggling with increasing knee pain for a year now. Recently diagnosed with osteoarthritis despite being physically active (doing a reformer,barre ,studio Pilates, nursery work) each week. I’m disappointed in diagnosis but trying to turn it around by educating self (Pilates cert iv) to help myself & others
