In this episode of The Chronic Illness Therapist podcast, licensed clinical social worker Bri Crisp shares her journey with endometriosis, from her initial symptoms in middle school to advocating for herself and finding the right medical treatment. Bri discusses the challenges of obtaining a proper diagnosis, the importance of finding knowledgeable medical professionals, and the multifaceted emotional and financial burdens associated with the condition. We get into personal anecdotes, the significance of second opinions, the need for persistence, and emphasize the role of mental health support in managing chronic illnesses.
