mood swings

[bbm1188]

To any woman out there that doesn't get emotionally effected by being pregnant I envy you. Lol I just want to argue and ***** at my husband, and ***** some more at him. Im overreacting over everything, and crying, sob crying not little tears. Ug I think Im crazy and I just cant rationally see it when Im upset until after Ive calmed down. This is killing me, I want to be normal. I hate treating my hubby this way when hes has such a hard day already, and has to come home to a *****. Thankfully he understands but still its not right to be that way. What do you guys do when you know Its going to be one of "those" days. As in your terribly emotional or pissed at everything? I want to be a better wife.

I wish u the best of luck too. Its gonna be a very long summer. I hope u find something to help. When are you due?

Well you can do it! For me the severe depression and just awful thoughts I cant control are to horrible. I tried to take this supplement for bp instead if meds and I spent a week crying all day everyday, plus my blood pressure would rise from the distress. I tried though plus I dont sleep for but an hour if I dont take my meds, I have serious sleep issues. Best of luck though with everything!

When I was prego with our son I lost it a bunch of times. Felt bad for him but now he knows what to look forward to again. Lol. But this pregnancy isn't so bad except for yesterday cuz it was in the 100's n was hot as heck n I was pretty cranky but we got through the day. But I have lost it quite a few times n feel bad cuz I get really violent. I got diagnosed not too long ago so when I was prego he just thought I was psycho but now we know what it is n I was on meds n it made me mellower so now I'm off my meds again he's like wow lol. But yes with now meds its very hard but I am determined to go through this with now meds :-)

Lol yea Ive wanted to hit him. Im more of a crier when Im upset. Ive actually never hit anybody, Ive always just cried and been called a crybaby Lol but there is a first time for everything, so i better get Good at walking away. Lol and @ amy yea I dont know how you do it. I worked in a customer service job before i got pregnant and Man the only reason I think I did so well was bc of medication, everyone would be like your so calm and patient, its not me its the meds. Lol

It sure is hard being bipolar and pregnant. I'm going through it a third time and off meds. Some days my boss laughs at me cause when customers are rude I literally walk away on them because I WILL b*tcb slap them lol

I usually feel it coming on. I just look at my hubby now & start the rant with "remember I love you". He really just appreciates the heads up this time around Lol. He still has a little scar on his shoulder from the cast iron skillet I hit him with last time. So at least now he knows to be ready to duck. Lol And look on the bright side. You haven't lost it completely and hit him yet. (That's the worst my mood swings have ever been)

[maddy3983]

Thanks I wish you the best too. Haha yeah I don't like being bi polar but its a very different day each day due to it lol. Yeah my Dr is waiting to find out what they are gonna put me on. But so far I havent been too bitchy lol

[bbm1188]

Lol your bipolar? So am i! Weird I havent met anybody else pregnant that is. I think thats What is making the mood swings worse for me. I have to take one low dose of a mood stabalizer bc Im bipolar 2 and just get to depressed. The Medicine though doesn't cause birth defects just miscarriage or stillbirth. It honestly helps but not for hormone crazy just chemical imbalance Lol hey Good luck to you. Add me as a friend if you ever need someone to talk to, I admire you for being off your meds, can be really hard. Wish ya the best ;)

[maddy3983]

Its a normal part of pregnancy. I go through the mood swings but I'm also bi polar and can't take my meds anymore cuz of the baby n possibility that it can cause birth defects. So I know how u feel. All I can say is try your hardest to control it and walk away when u feel like ur getting angry. Believe me I know its hard but u gotta try. I hope u find something to try n relax you n calm you down. Congrats on your bundle of joy.
