Summary

The overall goal of this observational study is to learn about the psychological resources of mindfulness and flow experience available to persons newly diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS). The primary study aim will be to analyze the relation of flow and mindfulness with mental health among individuals who received an MS diagnosis within the last year. Secondary aims will be to analyze the daily activities preferentially associated with flow, and to evaluate possible changes in daily flow retrieval. Participants will answer questionnaires measuring flow, mindfulness, positive mental health, anxiety and depression at project start and 6 months later.
