Bitter angry hormonal mess

ReeceFamily · September 2011

It's been four months since my miscarriage, and I feel like my hormones are wreaking emotional havoc, or maybe I am in a depression. I was depressed post mc, but I'd actually been feeling relatively even keel...and then hormones around this last AF really got me. I'm up/down, feel like crying, feel angry and bitter, feel anxious. This is not the norm for me, so I'm wondering if my hormones are just completely off-kilter, and if anyone else has experienced this?

I'm also emotional (angry, bitter, sad, confused) about a "friend" who is pregnant and has really shut me out since announcing her pregnancy. Plus she has started posting a bunch of baby-related crap on FB...barf. I'm not sure of her reasons for shutting me out, but it hurts, especially because she knows about the mc. Plus, I'm angry that she is most likely carrying to term and I am not. And then I feel like a horrible person.

Wow, I'm a barrel of laughs. Happy Labor Day .

I can relate completely.

Sorry you're feeling craptastic. It really sucks.

I'm normally a very positive, "look on the bright side", happy-go-lucky type of chick. 6 months ago that all changed. It really does wear on you. Every month gets more difficult. I'm usually a wreck from cd1-8. Then around cd9 I start to feel "normal" again until the anxiousness kicks in from cd20-AF. Rinse and repeat.

Hang in there. Hopefully we can get off this ride soon.

First of all ((hugs))!!

I have been feeling this way lately too. Usually I don't let my emotions get the best of me and I'm a pretty upbeat person, but lately I have been a mess. One day everything is fine, the next day I can barely bring myself to get out of bed. It's all a part of the process, dealing with a miscarriage is not an easy thing. I wish no one had to do it.

I feel the same exactly way, right after my m/c depressed.....then I really got better, but lately I'm going down that dark hole again. Just realized it was exactly four months today that I lost my baby......holy crap I did'nt even realize until just now. Sorry I'm not more uplifting, just wanted you to know you're not alone.

Thanks all, that helps. Yogiwannabmom, interesting that you hit an emotional wall at 4 months, as well. Don't worry about not being uplifting, misery loves company. Even in my crabby state, sending good thoughts out to you all.
