Abstract
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system, including the brain, spinal cord, and optic nerves. Symptoms vary from muscle weakness to vision loss and tend to worsen during flares and improve during periods of remission. Psychiatric symptoms are common in people with MS, impacting the quality of life and some features of MS (fatigue, sleep, disability, adherence to disease-modifying drugs). The main psychiatric manifestations of MS are depressive, bipolar, anxiety, schizophrenic, and obsessive–compulsive syndromes. We will present the case of a 46-year-old female patient who came to our clinic for disorientation to time and space, impaired recent and recall memory, auditory hallucinations, sad mood, irritability, and slightly decreased appetite for food.
