Anxiety And Depression
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Does anyone suffer from anxiety and depression as well- stemming from endo?
I personally have noticed if I am not working on eating healthy and doing physical therapy or yoga . My anxiety gets worse as well as my depression.

I definitely feel like my whole world is coming to an end - my hormones become out of control and I feel trapped, usually around ovulation and then again during my period. I can see it when I finally calm down, but in the midst of my wave of emotion, it seems like the only way out is to die. Extreme, I know, but in that moment I I can't see a way out. I've threatened to hurt myself and leave my husband (things I would never do when I'm "normal") - birth control is the only thing that keeps my head above hormonal water, but when I take it inconsistently all bets are off. We are both scared for me to go off of it to attempt to have a baby.

These questions and answers have helped a lot, I've always been up and down with depression and anxiety and now I'm wondering if part of it (not all of it, I know that) could be due to endo and hormone imbalances? Think it's time to go back to my doctor and get some answers.....

I think its a recurring mood problem if hormones are not balanced to get endo in remission.

every time i get bad pain (around 3 x a month) I get very emotional, upset, feel alone, tired and seriously lacking in energy. reading other comments above this is quite common. i thought i was so alone on this.
