\n\u201cIn terms of raising awareness that\u2019s 100% what I want to do.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
From the preview shows Amy mentioned how her act has already started to raise awareness and has received positive feedback.<\/p>\n
\u201cLoads of people have said that they hadn\u2019t heard of it before, or even if they had they didn\u2019t realise kind of all the symptoms and the effects it has on people\u2019s lives. That was one of the reasons I wanted to do it, to help.\u201d<\/p>\nAmy was diagnosed with endometriosis in 2016<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nAmy was diagnosis with endometriosis back in 2016 after living with undiagnosed symptoms for over 10 years. Amy explained how after reading the actress and fellow endometriosis sufferer, Lena Dunham\u2019s, autobiography she believed endometriosis could have been the cause of her symptoms \u2013 Amy was right.<\/p>\n
\u201cI instantly finished the chapter and rang the doctors.\u201d<\/p>\n
Soon after, Amy underwent various tests and a laparoscopy, her only surgery to date, which led to her diagnosis. Initially Amy felt relief with her diagnosis, in the sense she had discovered what was the cause of her problems.<\/p>\n
Amy\u2019s root into comedy began five years ago when she joined the comedy society at her university, MMU Chester.<\/p>\n
\u201cI started doing comedy at university \u2013 I was doing a theatre degree anyway so I was already kind of in that sort of world, and there was a comedy society at the university I went to, MMU and I joined that because I \u2018d always been really interested in comedy. \u2013 I was convinced to try stand-up and I did, and I really liked it and I just kept doing it from there.\u201d<\/p>\nAmy performing live<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nBefore finding out she had endometriosis Amy was joking about her undiagnosed symptoms in her stand-up.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think the weird thing is I\u2019d kind of been making jokes about it without realising it for a while, because I\u2019d written about symptoms and stuff like that \u2013 that had been in my set anyway.\u201d<\/p>\n
Talking about endometriosis in her stand-up has become a form of coping mechanism for Amy, as she would say.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt definitely is a coping mechanism in a way, because if you find the funny side of something that\u2019s happening it lightens it.\u201d<\/p>\n
Hoping to progress with her comedy, in all aspects of the entertainment genre, Amy continues to run comedy and drama workshops as well as developing her stand-up. Amy also intends to take her act on tour and to medical conferences and schools, to raise awareness for endometriosis.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m hoping that this is just the start \u2013 with the show I\u2019d like to tour, and also take it to medical conferences and maybe do educational things for schools as well.\u201d<\/p>\n
