Feeling Stuck
Post Content
I found out I have PCOS this past August, though I’ve suspected I’ve had it for the last 5-6 years. Since being diagnosed, I’ve been put on 2 medications and now have to take an iron supplement after bleeding so long I became iron deficient. I’ve always been the only one in my family that’s never taken medicine consistently, which is dumb to be sad about I know. I’ve had more doctor’s appointments in the last few months than I’ve had in the last half a decade. But in all of this, I feel bad for feeling frustrated and I feel like I’m complaining all of the time. I feel like I’m riding the line between taking this illness too seriously and making too much of my life about it versus shrugging it off. Part of it is because there’s such a large percentage of people experiencing PCOS, I feel guilty being so impacted by it. I’m ranting here because I don’t know where else to talk about it, I feel like I annoy everyone in my life with it. Sorry for the pity party 😂 Has a similar thing happened at all to anybody else? Any recommendations on how to squash this feeling?
