About Worry Head

You love a woman living with endo or fibro, maybe both – endometriosis and fibromyalgia. You want to help, but you also feel stretched thin, worried you will say the wrong thing, exhausted by the unknowns, and quietly hurting where no one sees.

Does it sound like you?

This space is for you, but it is also for her, because chronic illness touches you both. But what do I have to do with it?

Who Am I & Why I Write?

I’m Lucjan, a husband who has stood beside the woman I love through doctors’ rooms, panicked nights, flare-day routines, and the quiet grief that follows plans we couldn’t keep.

I searched for guidance written for men like me… I found nothing!

So I built Worry Head – a place where partners learn how to support the woman they love without losing themselves, and where women feel deeply seen by a man who genuinely tries to understand.

What do I Believe?

  • Her pain is real. And so is yours. Both deserve care, dignity, and room to breathe.
  • Support is a skill. Empathy, pacing, communication, boundaries, and co-regulation can be learned.
  • Two truths can live together. You can be strong and scared, hopeful and tired, loving and imperfect.
  • We grow as a team. Compassion for her, compassion for you, and compassion for the relationship you’re building.

What are My Values?

  • Dignity & consent: Her pace sets the pace.
  • Clarity over noise: Simple words, practical steps.
  • Hope with honesty: No sugarcoating, no despair.
  • Care for the carer: Your burnout helps no one.
  • We, not me: Decisions and rhythms that honor both.

What Will You Find Here?

  • Gentle, practical guidance for both partners’ communication scripts, bad-day plans, flare-day pacing, intimacy with consent, and mental health tools that comfort rather than overwhelm.
  • Medical context explained simply so partners don’t feel lost in jargon (never a substitute for professional advice).
  • Stories that heal, honest, vulnerable writing that helps women feel understood and helps men show up with steadier hands and a steadier heart.

A Note to Women

You are not “too much.” Your symptoms are not a character flaw. If your partner sent you here, it’s because he’s trying. If you found this yourself, I’m honored you’re here. I write to help him love you better, and to help you feel safer, lighter, and more understood.

A Note to Men

You won’t always get it right. Neither do I. She doesn’t need perfect, she needs present. Learn her patterns, believe her pain, ask before you fix. Protect your own energy so you can show up tomorrow. Consistent effort makes things work for you both.

How do I Write Articles?

Everything here is written from lived experience and careful research. I consult reputable sources and specialists, and I keep updating when evidence shifts. But this site is not medical advice. It’s a companion for your journey, something to hold while you talk to your clinicians and make choices together.

Want to Work with Me?

I partner on projects that lift visibility, compassion, and evidence-based support for couples navigating endometriosis and fibromyalgia with a special focus on helping men show up with steadier hands and steadier hearts.

Who I Partner with?

  • Health publishers, bloggers, podcasters, advocacy groups, clinics, therapists, researchers.
  • Employers/HR teams building caregiver-friendly workplaces.
  • Universities, student orgs, and health programs.
  • Brands truly serving chronic-illness communities (education, comfort, accessibility).

Worry Head is the promise I made on the hardest nights: to keep learning, to keep showing up, and to keep love bigger than the illness. If that promise helps you, you’re home!
