I’m not sure what I’m doing!?

I had a laparoscopy last year to remove some endometriosis tissue, and since then, I haven’t had a ‘normal’ period. I started the Depo injection but stopped in October. At first, I felt better, but then the nausea kicked in, and by the third month, I was having light bleeding throughout the month. Now, I’m on the waiting list for the implant, but I’m worried it’ll just make me feel worse. My periods and PMS feel more intense, and it’s like I can’t function. This past weekend, I was barely at 10%, in a lot of pain but not bleeding much. I just feel really stuck.
