Join the community and share your experiences, advice, and story with people going through similar challenges starting a family.
I thought this was interesting so sharing in case anyone else is feeling distressed. Infertility can be a hard, hard road to walk.

"Take this test to determine how well you are coping with infertility distress and the level of care you need.
This is a "mock diagnosis" of what I call the "Infertility Distress Syndrome." I developed this "disorder" myself while experiencing infertility and wrote it up this way to explain the devastating and far-reaching effects of infertility in my lectures to Psychiatric Residents at UCLA. Check the button next to each symptom you are experiencing. Then press the "Total" button at the bottom to calculate your score and determine your level of Infertility Distress."

Thanks for posting the quiz. I knew obviously IF is taking over my life but when its written out, how much this journey affects your life, it was crazy for me to actually see how much this controls my life. Hopefully not for long!
I think the best thing about the test is it just brings to light all the different ways IF makes us feel badly, and helps to promote self-awareness and discussion about it. IT was clearly written by somebody who "gets it."
