Depressed/regretting?

[XXLnomore 51]

Having a bad night. Been crying and don't know if ive messed up my life. Still so sore after 4 days. I haven't taken my anxiety meds in 5 days (til tonight). I just want to sleep and cry. I know (I hope) it'll pass but I feel like I want to wake up and this'll all be over

Anybody feel the same at first?

I believe most of us felt that way at smell point . Major surgery, anesthesia, crazy diet, exhaustion, and for you no mess...it's a set-up to make you think you're crazy! I was an emotional mess for 6 weeks. SIX WEEKS!!!! At 5 weeks I looked at the other PA in my office and said I was giving it one more week, if I was still sad and crying in another week she was going to have to medicate me. Rest, eat well (as well as you can anyway), and try to be patient with yourself and this whole process. Also know that you are not alone, we're here with shoulders to cry on anytime. And no one else in the universe understands as well as we do!

Six weeks!? OMG. I hope not. Looking back, would you do it again? My son's sitting here, wanting to know if I'm crying b/c of him

Ughhh. It'll pass though.

I'd do it again in a heartbeat!!!!! I'm sure it'll clear up faster for you. I was just a big old baby drama queen

I'm 4 days out and having a very hard time. Trying to reassure myself I didn't ruin my life by doing this. And I'm starving. I have cried every day since. I know it will get better with time. But I understand you totally.

Thank you. That does help. The thought of having to go back to work Monday is horrible! My mom has to take me to the store tomorrow so maybe I'll feel better getting out. Thank you. I just keep reading all the good postings and wonder if I'm the only one feeling bad. Anyway...hope everybody else is doing great!

You are 100% normal and it will pass. It is different for everyone. Mine hit me around 3 weeks and was there for about 3 weeks. I ended up crying at my month post op group meeting. Oh I hated to hear give it time it will pass, but those words are very true. I am 13 months post op down 117lbs and love life. It is worth it!!!! Hang in there!!!

Thank you. I feel better right now. Went ahead and took more pain meds (trying to get em out before work) and apologized to my baby boy and now we're rubbing each others feet! LOL. Just got a little emotional. I'm glad I joined this group to help me out and let me know it's not just me. Thanks to all of you!!
