Recognize Endometriosis as a disability

Endometriosis is a very serious problem that girls as young as 11 have, I my self am a 17 year old girl with Endometriosis but I started having the symptoms from the very first time I got my period. The average age that women are diagnosed is 25 to 35 years old so you can imagine how upsetting it is to have it so severe at my age and knowing that it won't go away. It's hard for other girls to sympathize with people who have this condition because they don't understand how much worse it is for the people that do have this condition, that only makes it that much harder for us because we have no one to talk to and no one understands. The pain that you get from Endometriosis is almost crippling, when you get this pain you are unable to do anything! You can't do anything execpt cry and roll up into a ball on the couch so you can imagine how it can affect your everyday life. I do not go one day without thinking about it or experiencing this pain severe or not, it makes it hard to do any of your day to day things like driving or even walking. I want this to be recognized as a disability because I honestly think it is, I want to raise as much awareness about Endometriosis as I can so please sign this for me and everyone else suffering from Endometriosis
