MOOD SWINGS!!!!

Okay.. so I'm winding down to by surgery date.. I'm scheduled to have surgery on April 26th.. The day after my Birthday. (why do I feel like I'm about to cry.. i was pissed off 10mins ago) ANYWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!********** I have been having real CRAZY MOOD SWINGS.. I thought this stuff only happend to women... I can do from being pissed to being sad.. to being horny.. to being depressed.. and then it cycles.. IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH ME??? I try to stay calm.. the littlest things will TICK me off.. and then I can be sad real quick.. the other day i was watching an old episode of The Facts of Life when Mrs. Garrette was going to get married and move to Africa.. why the hell was I reaching for a box of tissue.. OH MY GOD... that settles it.. I'm officially NUTS!

No everyone goes through it and you are not NUTS.....

Hey Missy Crystal, How are you doing sweetie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hope you can come see us on WED. night. Phyllis

HEEEEEEEEEEY SURGERY TWIN!!!!?? Can someone please explain why I'm awakeat this hour? (for crying out loud)

Very normal- I had some weird dreams too-but it was sad when Mrs G was gonna move away to Africa..lolololol I dreampt my surgeon was on a sled going down a hill doing surgery on me and my dog was driving me home from hospital in my jeep..haha I am having hip surgery this coming Friday so I am not sleeping, and having weird dreams again..ack Best of luck on your surgery!! PS I am sure Mrs Garrett will be back to visit the girls if she moves SHannon

I hope so.. how can she just move away like that.. SHE IS ALL THOSE GIRLS KNOW!!! lol.... for real.. thank you soo much for your wonderful advice.. I really appreciate it. Trust me i do.

PS I am hoping for a Facts of Life in Africa special!! LOL

Hi BC, This for me was part of the pre-op too!!!!!!!!!! I am not sure why it happens, this too shall pass!!!!!!!!!!. I promise, it does get better. Take Care, Phyllis

If you think this is bad, Just wait until about 4-6wks after surgery.....LOL. Really it is VERY normal. You are morning your best friend....FOOD! You are afraid that your will never eat normal again, well it is not true. The truth is once you are past your honnymoon stage and between 2-3 yrs out. you are sooo back to normal as far as your eating abilites, it is scary. My best advice is all the rules you learn now, you need to live by the rest of your life, if you understand that now, it will make your journey much easier. This is just a tool to help us loose it is up to US to keep it off. It is and will always be hard work, but it is sooo worth it. So please don't let this scare you, I just want you to know some of the things many of us oldtimers where never told in the begining, we have had to learn the hard way, we really didn't have anyone to really look to for answers or advice. We were kinda like the blind leading the blind....LOL. Well good luck to you on your journey to better health and the losing side of life. God Bless and take care----Toni PS the biggest secret is to EXERCISE!!!
