@A MyEndometriosisTeam Member I totally understand you especially the feeling like a burden part.I am so anxious about getting into a relationship because of that. My previous relationship ended because I didn't feel understood and supported by my ex.

I think a lot. He has learned how to take care of me at my worst and I have had to learn how to trust him when it gets really bad. It also greatly affected how our sex life looks and how we approach sexual situations. I often get self conscious about how much I feel like a burden to him and need more reassurance (which makes me feel worse). Really I would say having to trust our communication as a couple to make sure we are both getting what we need has been the biggest gamechanger. It is really difficult to be chronically ill with someone by your side having to watch you be in pain and live through it with you.
