Hi my name is Ezzy! I have EDS and very little support around me. Sometimes I just want someone to understand how much I have no control over. Things like this scare me but I'm trying to be open.

Hi @ezzy and welcome to the community, good to see you join us.
You've done great in speaking about hwo you feel, sometimes it can help to get it off your chest and have conversations with people so I'm glad you've taken this step.
You said you have little support around you at the moment, are you just referring to people outside of your GP or health professional? I do hope you are receiving all the support you need to manage your EDS from those health professionals.
I'm sure being on the community will benefit you, this is a very supportive and welcoming place.Online Community CoordinatorConcerned about another member's safety or wellbeing? Flag your concerns with us.

Hi @ezzywilson - & welcome to this friendly & supportive community. I also have EDS (the hypermobile type), as do my children & grandchildren. There are quite a few of us with EDS in the community, so you will find myself, & others will have some understanding. Very nice to 'meet' you.
