Angry, after surger? What is going on?
Hello all!
It's been forever since I've been on. For another brief introduction. I'm Sarah, 31, from Maryland, one year and a half post-op from the sleeve. I've lost about 80% of my excess body weight and am in a major stahl right now.
I don't know why, well I do, but it's complicated. It just seems everything gives me a bad taste in my mouth. I want everyone to understand how precious life is and how wonderful it is to be alive, but they do not do this.
Has anyone else felt this way (generally angry or annoyed with people)? What did you do?

First few years I was put on Lexapro.. but I did not like the side effects.. I got myself off of that and now I try to limit my coffee...or tea.. gentle exercise.. and meditation.. good sex... and last but not least - I take 5-Http or tryptophan - that really helps to mellow me out...

I have depression and PTSD and sometimes I get pretty irritable. Usually happens when I'm under a lot of stress and all my depression and PTSD symptoms get worse.
If your surgery was 18 months ago, I'm not sure your anger has much to do with your surgery. I'm guessing since you're posting about it, it's becoming a pretty big problem for you now. If it's bothering you a lot, you might want to talk to a therapist about it. It's no fun to go around mad all the time.

hormones are stored in fat so if you are still losing,it could be that. Wanting everyone else in your world to feel the way you feel is taking things a bit far. Why can't people just feel the way they feel.? How is this affecting you? Sounds like some therapy might help you work thru some of these feelings.
I don't think this level of anger is necessarily normal.
