I have said for YEARS that my hormones are outta whack. But, no one believed me or they would just switch my birth control - psh. However, after seeing a prescribing nurse for my "psycotropic" drugs and a therapist who says I'm one of the most sane people she's ever met (HA, at the time I wanted her to admit me to the Phsyc ward) one finally said, well if its cyclic, than we can't do anthing about that you need to talk to your OB. The NP at my OB's put me on Premarin - Estrogen supplements. 0.0 they found my sanity! Oh my heck! WAHOO!
I have been taking them now for 3 wks so they are finally in my system and there is a WORLD of difference in my world. Like this morning- I walked a mile and got outta bed before 11! =0 (oh did I mention I don't sleep until like 3am?) I'm going to start walking another mile before bed to see if that helps me not only lose weight but get to sleep. What I think would be a cool goal? Haven't chatted with my hubby yet but an idea ^_^ , I would love to do the 3 day walk with Lisa and whoever would join us next year. I was very proud of her and her blisters this year and think that if I keep that goal in mind, I can do more and more miles a day in my one hour and work up to more hours =] I might get my waist back yet! I haven't set any goals to start running after my walking improves, I'm still not sure my reactive asthma would let me, or my old knee's and hips - lol I won't go on.
So ladies, besides having baby blues or depression may I suggest the following: 1. Excercise - OUTSIDE while you can, its nice to be OUT of the house. 2. Find a friend willing to be positive when you are having your negative and vice versa (male or female) 3. If it is clinical - get medicine, it won't go away on it's own, you'll just think it did until it slams you. 4. Check to see if it really isn't your hormones! After all, having kids really screws up our bodies - mentally and physically.
