I moved out the western slope of Colorado, to the high desert, after I got an MS diagnosis. I’ve never had more concentration in my life. I was able to focus without a chime or someone else needing to contact me. Just me and how to move forward. Years later I moved back to the city.
It took my a while to get back to city life when I left, the busy everything, the phone going off, the lights in the sky at night blocking the stars. How do we all do it?
I live a bit remote in the mountains on a farm. I come to a city and feel like a complete potatohead. I’d survive one week before going completely mental.
If you don’t mind me asking, did you move to the desert to improve your symptoms? My wife was diagnosed a few years ago and temperature regulation has been an issue, and the humidity really makes things worse for her.
Did being in a desert climate help with any specific symptoms?
That’s one of the reasons I went and it did help. I had to leave for a different reason. The dry air was amazing, it was like taking a wet blanket off. My mobility went up and my energy up.
