Does Anyone Else Have Tension In Your Body?

A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question πŸ’­
Norway, SC

I have PTSD, and it has made me tense pretty much 24/7. But I have noticed that when my endo is bad, I get extremely tense. I'm relaxing in bed, not noticing how my shoulders gradually rise up, my breathing is in my chest, my legs are tense, everything. Is this more of an individual thing due to my struggles with tension, or does anyone else get more tense with endo pain?

Hi Anette! I would recommend stretching and supplementing with Magnesium Glycinate. That type of mag is specifically for muscle pain. Hope it helps xoxo.

Yes! Extreme tension , i have cptsd and can be the exact same without even realising it’s difficult to control. I have found acupressure mats help a lot! Hope your okay!
