vsggirl 33 Posted January 10, 2014 Oh sweetie I am so sorry to hear all the things you got going on, hang in there and take one day at a time. I pray that things get better and that you are able to find a job soon! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Queenfreak 36 Posted January 10, 2014 I'm so sorry. I had a lot of things happen to me last year that were really crazy. Accident, two knee surgeries , two hand surgeries and neck epidural. Then my daughter suffered a concussion. The only thing that made me feel better was to eat and drink. Maybe that's why ( besides the job/ accident) because we turned to food for comfort and now that is gone. Easy to say but reach out to friends and family for support. Lots of luck. 1 terri82much reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kata13 56 Posted January 10, 2014 That's a lot to handle. If this continues then it might be worth taking for a short time. I would try to find new things to do to help soothe your emotions. Today I am going for a mani/pedi. Be kind to yourself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ajustice 484 Posted January 10, 2014 So sorry to hear everything is outta sorts right now. You do have a lot on your plate and still getting back in the swing of things after surgery. The emotional mess I felt fortunately resolved not too long post op. If it continues it's definitely worth seeing someone and maybe some meds to help or some talk therapy. You have a lot to deal with right now so it might be helpful as you try to get things in order again. You can do this and you have us. Remember no matter what you are going to be ok! Things will work out. Hugs!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dee_1111 317 Posted January 18, 2014 damn girl..sheeeezz..when it rains it pours..the depression is a normal side effect. I had it. but first let me say this->Im not bio-polar or have a affection for depression to begin with. I had a bad bout of depression, call my psychiatrist, she told me it was normal, but if it hasn't pass in time, we would start discussing meds, I had meds, so I waited it out. Thank god it finally went away. Horrible experience, that was. 1 Queenfreak reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mamafine23 101 Posted February 2, 2014 It gets worse but then it gets better ...there's nothing wrong with getting some help and meds to level yourself out...in fact maybe you just need a progesterone shot ... We look forward for this surgery and have all the expectations of a better life but it doesn't happen right away and when things happen that's outside our control it can bring us more down ...I'm sorry for what your going through but it will get better ....we are all here for you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I take them every morning and believe me they help. I take cymbalta, and if I forget it I know it. I start to cry for no reason and just am a total wreck for the day. There is nothing wrong with taking a depression med or mood stabilizer? I know a lot of people who take them and you know with all the changes your body is making right now that might be the reason. Best suggestion is talk to your doctor??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
