Just Sad....Realizing How Much I Have Changed

[Nicolette]

So I guess I need to remember to write the word vent at the beginning of the post.

Changed for you :smile:

Mina...I just read your post again and originally thought it helped you...but it made it worse the same as with she cat. Thank goodness I am not having my tubes tied anytime soon. That is awful!

Thank you Nicolette...Now people can read it and understand why I was writing my thoughts and posting them in a self help forum.

It is interesting that the link with PMS has come up, this has been something I've been wondering about over the past year.. I thought it may have been just me.

It is hard to remember that tomorrow will be a better day and this too shall pass

I think this idea is so true, at the time you are caught up in the thoughts, it is really hard to see past that. Congrats on getting out and trying to change things for you. I'm off to do some retail therapy myself tomorrow.

It helps to know others experience such rapid changess in mood and that I really am not going crazy.

I think a lot of the emotional sensitivity is PTSD related. Thinking about the stress cup idea, the ptsd puts a certain amount of emotional reactivity into the mix to begin with. Add cycle changes, life stresses (major and minor), physical factors... no wonder emotions are up and down. I always think of myself as scraped raw, like a layer of my skin is gone, so I'm extra-sensitive.

Thank you apaklt for the post..it really does help to know I am not alone and experience this as well.Hope you have a good retail therapy session..it certainly did wonders for my mood today!

And Kers you are exactly right...the stress cup idea, I forgot about this but it certainly fits with my situation.

Kind of like onion skin Kers...makes sense.
