~~I COULD PROBABLY KILL SOMEONE!~~** MOODS ** WHAT IS GOING ON?

The other day an employee said "dog on people could put there own stuff back instead of leaving it everywhere"! My 4 year old repeats it and I go up to her and say I am about to put that shirt down your throat..... ~~GOOD ONE MOM~~ ANyway I tell her my son repeated her and I did not like it! Then pulling out the parkin lot another person waiting but not going looks at me like I just did the worst thing and threw up her arms and stuff............. ~Good one mom moment again~~ I stop at the red light and look at her like I was gona kill her and she looked away..... What in the world is wrong with me and the crying..............AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHGGGGGGGGG I cant stand this anymore. I see the doctor next week and my theripist the week after. But NOW what in the world can I do and please remember I am going through a ton. I feel bad for the kids....Mommy is just so moody!

having just finished my own crying bout i think i can relate. wait - no - i know i can relate. i'm having such a rough time with my moods. all i want is to be by myself. i'm mad at my husband, irritated at the babysitter and let's not even discuss what i'm feeling towards my mom! so basically, you aren't alone. and you are doing the right things by having appointments with your doctor and your therapist. we are going through so much - hormonally and physically - how could we NOT be stressed out? i have no real other advice - be patient with yourself - don't beat up on yourself too much - this too shall pass. it has to or i will explode!!!!

We have to remember that after surgery and the rapid weight loss our hormones are all out of whack. in time when the weight starts to come off a little bit slower the hormones will level out and the mood swings wont be this way or quite as bad. Our bodies are still healing from the major surgery and it just takes some time for everything to catch up. Hang in there it will get better. Kim

This is so incredibly funny I just posted something very similar on another board. I am right there with ya. I feel like I am stuck in PMS land. Is any other ladies having any changes with menstration, like not having any? I love being able to talk to others about this stuff, my husband definately doesn't understand. Hang in there, this to shall pass. Kris

It's sure not just you. My moods have been all the hell over the place since the surgery. One moment I'm ecstatic and the next I'm crying or snapping someone's head off and the next moment I'm fine again.

This is very normal after surgery. My dr routinely puts all her patients on an antidepressant (lexapro). I was told that u morn your old habits of eating ...with friends, family or alone...and other times u are excited about your wt loss. There can be a million other reasons for the ups and downs. I would suggest calling your drs office and maybe taking something for the first 3 months. After that u will be loosing so much that alone will probably keep u happy. Mariah

For me, I think it is still all hormonal disruption. I'm not really depressed or ecstatic ABOUT anything. It's just random moods that flare up and then disappear. Outside of those flares, I'd say I'm generally feeling good.
