I watch movies online with some friends and my girlfriend (separately), and I am 30 years old. I never liked going out to the cinema, and now I have immobility issues, so that is even less more likely, plus all my friends are abroad, so... :(

    Finding friends within walking (or at least biking) distance can certainly be a hard problem (even for people in full health), but seems to be so ridiculously important for our well-being, that it's probably worth striving for.

      I agree. A change of environment (to a more positive one) can save your life. I have experienced it first-hand. I have psychiatric co-morbidities (which is exacerbated by MS) but a change of environment can do wonders. The people there do not even have to be your friends (in the beginning), it can still have such a positive impact on one's mental and even physical health.
