Mood Swings

I'm going through some serious mood swings and I don't know if it's related to my surgery or starting a new rx, Lyrica or what but it's got my family looking at me sideways. I had a road rage incident on Mon. while my hubby was still on the phone with me and it scared him because he had never heard me like that out of 23 yrs. This redneck, beeped his horn at me at a red light to turn right and I was going to turn when I was comfortable because they have just installed all of these cameras on some the lights now. Well I didn't turn fast enough for him and dude raced up beside me and started yelling at me and then got in front of me and slammed on his brakes !!!!!

He picked the wrong sista that day. I flipped him off did my Beyonce' imitation in that movie where she throws the phone down and says I'll talk to ya later and yells out my window to dude. " You got a f'king problem ? You want a piece of me? We can handle this right here !!!! What fluck is your problem? I am not the one to be messed with !!!!! My head spinned like ole girl in the Exorcist and my eyes turned red and dude sped up and turned off. I picked up my phone and my hubby was calling my name and asking me what was wrong with me. He was like "Don't you know you can be killed doing stuff like that?" He was sooooo mad at me because first of all, I'm not suppose to be driving due to my seizures but I've been seizure free with the new meds, he's never heard me use such language and I was by myself and this is TN !!!!!

This just made me even more furious because he didn't take up for me so I had a few choice words for him. You know this ninja had the nerve to say to me that the devil is busy !!! I can count on one hand how many times he goes to church a year !!!!! I told his butt that the bible says even the devil can quote scriptures. LOL

I won't even go into what has happened at work because this thread is long enough but these mood swings is going to cause me to hurt someone. I told my 6'7 son last night that I was going to yank him up in his collar and he can knock me over with 2 fingers if he wanted to. He wasn't even being bad, he was just practicing his debate skills for his upcoming debate competion and I didn't like his answers.

I don't work again until next Tues. I'm locking myself in my room. LOL I wish I could go to a retreat. Woosah !!!!!!! I wonder what is going on but it ain't pretty right now. That's why I don't even get on the computer everyday because I might see something and say something that is rude.

I would say blame it on the meds. But take time to breath before going off (not something i do, but hey whose to say you must practice what you preach, lol).

Try to keep it calm, talk to your doc to see if mood swings are a side effect of the meds.

Working on me - want to be better in everyway not just physically!!! Its a process no time to judge or be judged!!!!

Thank you Brenda. I've only been on this med for a month for my fibromyalgia but I have to take other things for my seizures and other illnesses. I don't like taking meds and would rather take supplements but that's not possible right now.

That's just how we ask each other, "How was your day," here in NJ.

Only you Double Ayy

That lyrica can really mess with you. Between that and the steroids I can be angry 100% of the time, at nothing. Just keep reminding yourself its the drugs talking not you. Say it over and over when you feel the heat rising in you.

I once wanted to kill a woman in the supermarket because she politely asked if I would pass her the divider bar so she could put hers things down.
