When I was first diagnosed with Endometriosis, I noticed on twitter people were using the hastag #spoonies. I had no idea what this was. After some research I found a website made by Christine Miserandino who created the 'Spoon Theory'. When trying to explain how Endometriosis (or other chronic illnesses) impacts you on a daily basis, this theory could not put it any better! It explains in a brilliant way how people with a chronic illness struggle with a limited amount of energy each day. How the smallest of tasks for a healthy person can leave us feeling exhausted.
I recommend any newly diagnosed Endosister's who have not seen it before to take a look! Or, use it as a good way to explain to family, friends, employers or colleagues exactly how Endometriosis can affect you.
