Havent had a period since end of june. There irritability and anger/rage i feel is indescribable. One min i feel like i want to rip all my hair out then a second later my eyes are filling up wth tears. Just now at wirk im fighting back the tears thinking of my daughter leaving for college and my other daughter seems very depressed and closed off stays in her room shes 15 and a half. I mean really could i blame her shes got a mother who stays in her room and never feels good and never goes anywhere anymore im lucky if i can even get it together to cook dinner. I just think about my dayghters and i get that punched in the gut feeling and can cry all day.
just needed to vent and cry on someones shoulder, thank you ladies ![]()
Yes I feel a mess as well.. Period was last week but I feel exhausted.. Kids are home for summer and my energy is out the window. They are getting older and 17 yr old wants to be on his own ( i guess normal). School starts next week and it will be a relief BUT then I need to get myself in order. I’m so unsure about everything these days and just feel ‘out of it’. Watch your BP-- I find my anger is making it go up (or something is). And yes dinner is a challenge too— already trying to figure that out. I have a 15 yr old who I have to encourage alot. Not so sure he is excited about school starting next week-- he’s shy. Take care of yourself and try to do more good things for yourself even if it’s a small task.
Same here, Susan. You are not alone, and you are gonna get through this. WE are gonna get through this.
I have an 11 yr old daughter, and if it weren’t for her day camp, she would not have done anything this summer, as I can’t seem to keep it together, and everything makes me hurt, or exhausted, or anxious, or angry.
I try to tell my daughter I am not myself, not feeling well, that it’s not her problem to deal with, that I just need her love and support while I figure it out.
She seems to get it, for which I am grateful.
I am not myself at work, either, and that’s really hard…
Just know you have a friend here who gets it, and you can vent to me anytime.
Peace to you, honey.
