Anyone else SUPER grouchy and impatient ?

janelllindley25 · January 2014

i am ordinarly a very laid back and mild mannered person. I have been so Grouchy and super short fused with everyone. Anyone have any advice ?

Every time I'm pregnant I get this way.

Saying this totally on a whim, but because it's helped me SO much. Have you heard of essential oils? I've been using doterra oils for about 4-5 months now, and my most recent favorite is a blend called Balance. It has helped literally balance my moods and hormones SO so so much. I use it every morning, and I can tell a difference in my mood on days that I forget. It might be a little hippy for some people, but just sharing what works for me!

If you are grouchy, I say REST! Stop right then and take a nap, lay down, take a pause. Has really helped me to take down time anytime I feel an out of body temper randomly come on. More rest = less grouchy me & happier hubby.

I'm regrettably pretty short fused and high anxiety anyway, but I have found that taking a nap has helped me the past few days. I'm worse when I'm sleepy.

LovelyLou23, that sounds lovely. How do you use them?

Haha that's my main pregnancy complaint every time! Seriously, I have no patience for anyone anymore and my filter is GONE! I warned everyone at work on Monday that I was in rare form and to watch out for me

and none of them know I'm preggers so I had no excuse I just told them I needed a nap!

Yes! I haven't ran since my BFP and I get crazy when I don't run. I am just nervous to for some irrational reason. I am hoping to at least walk a few miles tomorrow. Naps help too!

I almost angry cried at work yesterday. Nothing that bad really happened. I just had a customer complain because we wouldn't honor an expired coupon. I used to manage a dive bar, and I've dealt with so much worse on a daily basis at my last job. I feel like a mess! Also, I haven't told my new work I'm expecting yet, so I had to blame it on a bad headache...

Not hippy!! I lurve essential oils and use them in my diffuser daily! Young living is my fave.

LovelyLou23 · January 2014

@MrsLaLaBug - awesome! From the research I've done, doterra and Young Living seem to be the very best there are.

@RusalkaSings - They are amazing and have absolutely changed our medicine cabinet. I have a mix of oils that I put on the kids feet any time they are either around lots of other kids or if they're starting to show any sign of a cold and it totally stops the cold from going anywhere. We have a diffuser that we diffuse different oils into the air--some purify the air, some just smell delicious, some help get a good night's rest, some help with any sort of lung congestion. They are truly amazing! I am a rep for doterra, but I can truly say I would use these oils with the same consistency even if the company wasn't set up that way. I just believe in them so strongly!

Please let me know if you have any other questions...I'd love to share more of our experience.

Totally!

drae86 · January 2014

Yes, short fused for sure and get frusturated ridiculously easy now. Very unlike me, typically very laid back as well.

@LovelyLou23, do you injest them?

LovelyLou23 · January 2014

@drae86 - I mostly just apply them topically and diffuse them into the air, so aromatically. Some, if not most, are safe to ingest with proper use. One of the best ways to ingest is in dropping them into an empty capsule, which I just have yet to order. Another thing we've done is when we've felt a sore throat coming on, we'll put a couple of drops in water and the gargle, which works wonders!

I was a monster yesterday. I haven't been that crabby in a really long time. It has to be the horomones, because I can't think of any other reason for my moods.

I have to go talk to a CW that already irks me. I've been motivating myself to do this since yesterday because I just don't have the patience right now. I know a "Hey this project started" will end up in a 2 hour talk that will start about.... 10 mins before I'm supppose to go home. She will even annouce - "10 mins until you leave and here I am". I just... I can't.
