Hello everyone,
So this may be slightly off topic but one of the ways endometriosis affects me is by making my hair as thin as possible. Whilst my hair has never been super thick it has definitely gotten worse over the years.
Anyway, I was reading something about personal growth the other day and one of the ways to do this is also by changing your hair. So I took the somewhat drastic decision to hack of a whole eight inches off my head (and yes I did it myself).
I feel a MILLION times better for doing this and whilst it may not have cured my endo or made me better, it has made me feel way more positive about myself. I'm trying my hardest to start the year on a happy note and what better way to do this than to start with what I see in the mirror. Hair is very symbolic to me and I may have had a love/hate (mainly hate but that's stopping now!) relationship over the years with it, I decided to go back to basics and go cold turkey on the heat styling and dyeing and my hair has definitely fallen out less since I stopped doing this.
Attached is a picture of my now discarded rats tails if anyone wants a laugh 😂.
I would encourage anyone reading this to do something for themselves. Alright it doesn't need to be as drastic as me, but if you've got you're eye on a top in primark - buy it. Got your eye on a guy? Go for him. Wanna book that holiday? Do it. Sometimes we can forget what it's like just to be a normal human beings thanks to this shitty illness but endometriosis does not define us and it NEVER will.
So whilst you may not see me on love island anytime soon (maybe just as well cause none of the boys are that great this series 😅) I hope that this is a step in the right direction.
Looking for advise and hope on pregnancy and endometriosis
