1 week!!!!!

I am 1 week out today. I am  feeling great physically but mentally I feel my mind is playing tricks on me. One minute I am happy and the next minute I am sad. I have terrible nightmares at night and I am not sleeping well at all. Is this normal or do I need a shrink. BAF help a sista out !
Thank you for all the prayers a support I received from all of you thus far.

Congrats and welcome to the loser's bench!  I read on the boards that sometimes WLS and the resultant weightloss can have effects on your hormones. (I forget why but there is an explanation)  You are not alone in this from what I read on the various OH boards.  It wasn't my experience but we are all different -   If it keeps up after a month or so, I'd talk to my doctor about it.

Best wishes,

Rhonda

Your hormones are out of wack and you can't quite believe what you've done...it will settle, just continue to focus and do what's right.  Wishing you the best!

Hijack!!!  Man I leave BAF for a minute and come back and you are pregnant?????  Congrats!!!!  I missed a lot I see.  LOL

Lol, yeah girl....you gotta stick around.  Thank you ma'am!

Ditto to what the others have said.  I know you will feel better soon.

Keep you chin up  Moeuneek1 . You will feel back to normal soon. L

Congrats and welcome to losers bench.  At 5 1/2 months out, my emotions are still adjusting.  Just hold on and ride these waves.  A therpist is good and nothing wrong with talking to someone.  Your call. 

Congrats on a successful surgery and welcome to the losers bench.  I had the same experience and it only lasted for the first two weeks.  With me I think it was because I was experiencing head hunger and got upset with myself for choosing to have surgery.  That has since subsided and I am doing fine now.  So hand in there and trust me when I tell you, it will get better.
