I suffer from sps or stiff person syndrome for the past 6 years.

It's been hell on my body for these past 3 years.

I'm afraid of its current repercussions on my relationships I'm afraid of not having anyone understand me and assume I'm incapable of having a relationship because of my body is need of maintenance off and on.

I'm afraid I'll be too incapacitated to have normal rekationships.

I have met people with conditions that resulted in them being stiff all over.
Just hadn't heard of sps - so did a quick search, and found info and these (don't know if they are up-to-date):
