I officially hate my body

I'm so sorry hypothyroidism is hitting you so hard. I definitely remember how constantly tired I was before I was diagnosed and properly treated. I got 10 hours of sleep at night, then slept through half of my classes : /

I hated the blood tests too. They always left marks on my arms and I was terrified that people would think I was a heroine addict.

My doctor has me on Armour thyroid, which isn't a synthetic thyroid. I know you don't eat animal products, but does that extend to medicine made from animals? I don't know how Armour is made from pigs, but I know it works very well for me.

I hope you and your doc find a solution for you soon.

Let me know if there is anything I can do. *hugs*
