I was diagnosed with a cortisol deficiency when I was 4 years old and diagnosed with PCOS when I was 13. I am 24 now and have been struggling with my weight and self image all my life.
My husband and I got a new puppy last week and that got me thinking about having children. I had never researched my "syndromes"; I guess since they have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember I just accepted them. Tonight I decided to do a little online research.
When I came upon this site I could not believe my eyes. You all were writing down my feelings exactly. For the first time I realized I was not the only person suffering with this!! Thank you so much!
This is truly an inspiration to know I am not alone with my self image struggles. I am so sick of looking in the mirror and hating the way I look--the weight, the hair! Thank you! I look forward to reading everyone's posts and start dealing with my self image in a healthier fashion!!
