Multiple sclerosis sucks; I should know, I’ve got it. Luckily, it is possible to grow from terrible things and a field of psychology, known as Positive Psychology, can help us to understand how. Each week we take a look at a new field of the science of Psychology, we understand and implement the science, and together as a community we’re going to learn to thrive in the context of Multiple Sclerosis.

Episode 12: Complex Problem Solving

This week sees us reach the end of Season 1, and for the final episode of this season we do something rather different. Now I preface this episode by saying that I'm no medical doctor, physiotherapist, or occupational therapist, but I am a complex problem solver by trade and this week I aim to solve the problem my mobility poses to building my strength and exercising 20 minutes per day, and I apply all my skills to solving it. There are failures, and some tears, but in the end through the fires of trial and error I find a way to build up my strength and fitness in a way that is completely new to me. It features an exercise bike, virtual reality, and skeletons.

Next season we'll head back to the books to find whole new ways to flourish in the context of MS; we solve one problem, we solve the next, and if we solve enough problems we get to thrive with this condition.
