Hi Kamna1

Sorry to hear you are having a difficult time at the moment. Did you discuss how you are feeling with your GP? It's so important for you to get support with your mental health if you just don't feel like doing anything so please make another appointment with your GP to get some help with this.

On a separate note, along with our forum we also have face-to-face support groups all over the country where you can discuss endometriosis and how you are feeling with other sufferers. You can find out if there's one in your area at endometriosis-uk.org/find-a.... If you don't feel up to attending a group in person we also have an online support group that you might find helpful. You're definitely not alone in the way you are feeling so please do reach out.

We also have a free helpline that is open most days and run by volunteers who all have personal experience of endometriosis. To find out what times and days it is open simply visit endometriosis-org.uk/helpline

Take care x
