Before I was diagnosed I was in the process of 'coming out of my shell' after being bullied all throughout school. I would go clubbing with friends and generally be a normal 18 year old. When I got diagnosed I basically shut everyone off and stopped socializing all together.

Now I find myself wanting to have a active social life but I don't know how I could do that if I'm constantly too tired to leave my flat. I feel like I'm trapped by my UC and there's nothing I can do, I don't drink anymore so pubs arn't my thing and all my hobbies involved being active in some way and since I got diagnosed I've been struggling to find something new to keep the boredom at bay.

So what do you guys do? How can you get passed all the annoying symptoms of UC like low energy, needing the toilet etc...
