Share this post!! Use my wisdom as a seasoned Endo-warrior!! Because these are the most important THINGS I would tell 25-year-old self about endometriosis…
I wouldn’t tell her to be “stronger.”
I’d tell her to be kinder to her body.
I’d Remind myself that Endo is a whole-body, top most painful disease that impacts digestion, mood, energy, sleep.
(And) Here’s what I would change👇
✨ I wouldn’t to push through pain or chronic fatigue to be “productive.”
✨ Have my surgeries but it wouldn’t be my only treatment plan. Healing takes a team.
✨ My endo flare ups have patterns, so I’d stop feeling guilty!
So I’d Focus on what’s triggering them for more consistent relief.”
✨ I wouldn’t worry about other people’s opinions either.
✨ I would stop restricting too many foods b/c it backfires.
✨ I’d learn how to regulate my nervous system b/c pain signals “can change” over time.
✨ Never feel guilty for using pain meds
✨ Eat regular and nourishing enough to optimize my energy, sleep & mood!
😢 And dear friends, I’d also encourage others (like me) to seek answers elsewhere if they’re being dismissed, even if it’s out of country.
If I could start again, I’d stop trying to “manage” endo alone and build a Dream Endo Team, ⬇️
to start supporting my body in the best way possible!
Your turn friend👇
If you could go back, what would you change about how you managed your endometriosis? ❓❓
