Also the OP has said she finds the idea that her difficulties are medical in origin to be bothersome. My guess (I could be wrong) is that she means the idea that her brain is somehow broken and needs to be fixed, like a broken bone.
As for eating and emotional state, yea of course there is a connection. Why do you bring that up?

I guess there's a known cause for MS by your point? That's what I have. There's no known cause, just broad speculation. There's not much with such illness than symptom management. They've some disease modifying drugs that have some statistical base to reducing chance of future disability, but it's not perfect and I've declined further than the couple that I have tried. I choose self care at this stage of my remission. There's no cure.
I bring up self care because no matter if one treats their MI with traditional medicine or goes to an alternative route, sleep hygiene, nutrition and some form of exercise would be suggested as paths to recovery. There's no cure.
