Hey ladies So.. Ever since I was around 6 weeks pregnant (I'm now 11 weeks) I've had uncontrollable Anger. I am easily agitated and at first I thought it was from the severe nausea but since that has subsided a bit I am realizing it's just that I'm angry in general for no reason.
My whole life I have had a a hot temper but I could control it unless I was drinking. But now I'm just a psychotic nut and I feel depressed and horrible. My dad is visiting my husband and I in Washington and for the past 3 days I have been such a bi***... Last night was one of the worst nights of my life. My husband, dad and I had just left a nice dinner (which my dad paid $100 for) and the dinner was a little irritating because my hubby has a tendency to interrupt me sometimes or over talk and I told him that if he interrupted me again I would not talk at all. So dinner was a bit rough.
When we were walking towards the door my hubby let go of my hand to close our private room curtain so no one would steal the big tip we left. I got pissed and said that he was trying to look single by letting go of my hand(I KNOW, absolutely insane) and keep in mind that my husband is the most loyal and trustworthy man, but I just started blurting out accusations. My dad told me to stop attacking my husband because i was being irrational. I continued arguing in the car and my dad screamed at me to stop. When we got home my husband apologized to me (even tho he did nothing wrong) and my dad came to tickle me. I told my dad he had no right to scream at me the way he did while I'm pregnant. It all went downhill and my dad said Fuck you to me and I started screaming at my dad and then my husband because my hubby said my dad has a right to voice his opinion because he is my father.
Things got heated and I spat at my husband because he didn't put my dad in his place when he called me a bitch. They wouldn't let me leave but I ran out the door and sat at the park crying. When I got back an hour later all of us made up and apologized.
I just can't believe such a horrible event could take place while my dad is visiting us (haven't seen him in a year) and we were best friends when I was growing up.
I caused everything and I threw my wedding ring at my husband mid-fight as well. I've felt so depressed all day that I don't know what to do. Maybe this anger is coming from feeling like we may not be ready to have a child or just hormones? My husband has forgiven me and is totally happy and loving today but that just makes me feel guiltier. I feel so alone and insane I dont know what to do. I am 22 and my hubby is 23. He is my everything and I want to quit being this angry abusive person especially being that it could harm the baby. Please help me:( and be nice, because I already feel the worst I've ever felt in my life.
If this is not MUd you need to get into counseling ASAP and talk to your doctor about your feelings. These are not normal and not due to pregnancy. Your out bursts and spitting at your husband is unacceptable behavior.
I agree some counseling is definitely in order yes we have hormones while pregnant but it doesn't create that... Also why is your dad trying to tickle you a grown woman?
Counseling. You need counseling. Even when I'm hormonally angry, I would never spit at my husband or run away. And I think most of us are still somewhat lucid about our emotions. I know when I'm more ragey due to pregnancy, and will warn family that my reaction is a little overboard. This sounds like you may already have anger issues or some emotional conflicts with your family, and your inhibition is just completely dissolved. Definitely seek counseling.
1) DD'ing is not helpful to you or others. 2) Anger Management is a real issue. Therapy is a great tool for you to use. 3) Dont blame your lack of control on hormones, especially when you said you were a 'hot-head' prior to pregnancy. No one expect you to control your emotions, but they do expect you to control your actions.
