Weepy

[judecorp]

I really need to stop shooting myself in the gut with hormones. For real. I am so weepy!

This morning, I got weepy at (no lie) the final episode of Real World: Key West. And then I got weepy while watching a back episode of Cheerleader Nation on Lifetime where this one girl (Ashley) gets weepy talking about how self-conscious she is and how much she loves her friends. And I also got weepy at some e-mails I've been getting. And the cheesiest songs on the radio will set me off also. And a friend wrote on LJ about his visit to Auschwitz and I was a total mess.

I know that injects are less crazy-provoking than Clomid (thank goodness), and I don't have that "I am not in control of my life" feeling I had going on with Clomid... just general weepiness. I'm sure it's a combination of the hormones and the pressure of the process, but still... annoying.

Maybe I should stop with the Metformin and let my testosterone go back up so I can go back to being the strong boy that everyone liked. Word.

Hormones are funny.

I took clomid once - it did nothing for me at all in terms of fertility - but I did feel like shit when I was on it. I was headachey and pissy and forgetful. The puregon works for me in terms of fertility but doesn't make me feel all pissy. Although I've never been on 100 units. 50 the first time. 75 the second time.

Hang in there.

We are making eggs!

I still like you, regardless if you are weepy.

I, too, take magic chemicals that stabilize my brain and /also/ make me feel like I'm gonna cry. All. the. time. Very strange side effect.

i feel some sort of your sentiment. i was on BC pills for 5+ pills to NOT have a cycle - because of endometriosis. so no hormone flux. i came off them because we were talking seriously about wanting to do the baby thing within a year or two.

OH MY GOD> i forgot hormones were SO TOTALLY CONTROLLING of so much of my emotions!! suddenly, i have complete range of emotion - and i didn't realize i was missing any!

bizarre feeling to realize those little chemicals can do so much. i can't imagine if you're dosing up even stronger on them ... i'd be buying caseloads of kleenex. have you noticed increased irritability at times too? (i get all shades of irritated/pissy from time to time - over stuff that wouldn't normally bother me. i can only guess it's hormones, but not necessarily "PMS")
