Thyroid dysfunction: What’s your journey been like?

Hello everyone, how are you doing today?

Living with thyroid dysfunction, whether it's hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, Hashimoto’s, Graves’, or another condition, can deeply impact daily life. The symptoms might start off subtly: unexplained fatigue, weight changes, mood swings, hair loss, or brain fog. But for many, it takes years to get properly diagnosed, and even longer to find the right treatment plan.

Everyone’s experience is different, some people find stability with medication, while others are still trying to get their levels right or deal with ongoing symptoms despite “normal” labs. And sometimes, it’s not just about the body, thyroid disorders can affect how we feel emotionally and mentally too.
