First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests whether an internet-based program called My MS Toolkit can help reduce depression in people with multiple sclerosis. The toolkit teaches skills based on cognitive behavioral therapy to manage common MS symptoms like fatigue, pain, and low mood. Researchers will compare depression severity between 110 adults who use the toolkit and those who receive usual care.

What this could lead to

If it works, this could provide a practical, accessible way for people with MS to manage depression symptoms from home.
