ahh feeling sooo tired today :(

anyone else get random days sometimes where they feel so exhausted, like you're brain is just full of mush and you can't concentrate?

that's me today; I'm in work but I just want to curl up and close my eyes. I've almost finished my period so the past few days of pain etc have taken it all out of me

Yes! I'm exhausted today. I have some days where I'm fine but others where I'm so tired I can barely function. My consultant said that its not a very well known side effect of endometriosis x

yeah people and doctors just say "get more sleep" but it's not that, endo exhausted is different to just tired.

Yeah I get this mainly before and during my period I feel exhausted and even just walking up the stairs can tire me out.

oh dear :(

I get that too during my period too, even walking to the bus stop.

this is the "at all other times" it just feels like I've been thinking too much and my brain has switched off :( it's like I've been too full of thoughts / worries / emotions that my brain was overloaded and just fizzled out!

I tend to recommend an app called headspace, it’s so good and helps to manage thoughts and feelings especially negative ones. Plus the guys voice is so relaxing 😍 might be worth a go xx
