Recently diagnosed with PCOS

Hey everyone, I was recently diagnosed with PCOS & I feel very alone. Friends & family don't really understand how difficult it is. How are your experiences with PCOS? How do you cope with the emotional and physical pain of it? I'm new to this and I don't really know what to do. My doctor put me on a genetic provera to get my period and birth control. It's comforting knowing many people have it and knowing what exactly is wrong, but it's sooooo tough to lose weight when that's a cause and it is very difficult to lose weight. I struggled with weight all my life. Bottom line, what was your experience with Pcos like? Thank you xoxo
