A study led by Dr Rebecca Maguire from Maynooth University aims to understand if people with MS experience any stigma* from others in relation to their condition.
This research will also explore why some people with MS choose to hide their diagnosis or symptoms from others and whether this has any impact on their psychological wellbeing.
The anonymous survey will take about 15 minutes to complete and is open to all people with MS who are over the age of 18.

* Stigma can be defined as a set of negative or unfair beliefs that other people have about MS which, if experienced, may leave the person with MS feeling devalued.
