I don't really know what to say other than - I don't know what on earth is going on. I've never been this emotional before. Over stupid little things. Things that aren't even upsetting!
I spent two hours crying earlier because I couldn't find the bloody TV remote. I felt like an utter failure because the remote decided to go walkies. What the f**k?
I cried when I saw my cousins baby scan. I cried when I couldn't change the bed sheets by myself. I cried when my cat wouldn't sit with me because I felt so repulsive.
I found myself looking in the mirror and crying my eyes out. Did I hate what I see? Yup. Is it the same body I saw two days ago? Sure is. All because I put like 2lbs on.
I can't seem to control any emotions at the minute. All I can do is sit there, cry, and take the anti depressants my doctor gave me. I even had to call in sick at work because I couldn't face all the people.
Does anybody have any tips on how to deal with this? It's getting out of hand, I'm hiding from everyone..

It's good to remember that different hormones and chemicals can cause you to feel really terrible. It will pass. You're not alone. Enjoy what you can and bit by bit it will be better x
Hi, sorry to hear your having a tough time. I’m feeling exactly the same and my moods are so up and down. I cry then I feel low and down in the dumps. I do think it’s such an emotional rollercoaster. I’d just say take time to relax and do thinks that make you smile and make you happy. Hopefully things will get easier for you xx
Oh hun I sympathize with your frustration with this! I get this way too at times. I think sometimes it is due to having so much built up stuff I’ve kept pushed down coming out in odd ways. My hormones have been out of whack at times too.
Just the other day I cried because I couldn’t stir mashed potatoes after my surgery.. so I understand.
It could be hormonal changes causing this. I just do my best to not beat myself up over feeling this way. Allow yourself to feel your feelings! Then do your best to pick yourself back up. You’re not alone in this at all.
Feel free to message me any time if you’re feeling blue x
