Hey guys,
Just abit of a rant im afraid, full hysterectomy next week and today iv been crying, angry every emotion possible. Feeling extremely low, very alone. Just generally crap 😞 I dont know if im just worried or if its side effects again, either way its a shitty feeling and im fed up!!!
Hi,
I'm sorry you feel this way rubbish isn't it? 
I have depression & generalised anxiety disorder & I find when I'm low it helps to concentrate on something, I do a lot of colouring & playing games. If I'm really low I do guided meditations & take a long hot bubble bath! Sometimes the best thing for my low mood is a massive chocolate bar & my fave films! I really hope you feel better soon! xx
Thankyou!!! I just couldn't find the motivation to do a single thing, which in turn made me feel worse, just a never ending cycle atm!! I think its prob a mixture of anxiety for next week and trying to juggle the up and downs of life, sometimes enough is enough and i had a 'moment'. I really appreciate you taking the time to reply.

I'm so sorry to hear about this. You must be feeling quite sad. It's perfectly normal to feel this way. I would suggest distracting yourself a bit. That might help you. If you feel like talking about it, just hit me up. I'd love to help, in any way possible.
thankyou x
You are bound to feel like this as its such a huge thing to go thru. I went to the cinema the night before with my family, that was a good distraction. I turned my thoughts into positive ones as it was a step towards pain free/ flooding free times and getting my life back. I was 41 so there wasnt any feelings of loss as had my kids. Now awaiting ovary removal as it wasnt done with hyst so trying to not stress about surgical menopause now! It will be ok. X
Hey. I had the same op 3 months ago and wanted to let you know it was a good decision and hopefully you will feel the same. I felt better within a week and the menopause symptoms were not too bad. The recovery from the surgery takes a while, but compared to endo pain this was really manageable. It has been great to get to know my body without all of the ache, pain and worry. I feel like myself. I don’t feel I have lost a part of myself , on the contrary it feels like I have gained so much. There is lots for you to look forward to.
Hi Lisa, try not to worry, I thought I would be just like you but for some reason I just wanted it over and done with it couldn’t come fast enough for me. I am now 24 days post op and I am so glad I had my abdominal hysterectomy, unfortunately on day 16 I tried some exercises because I thought this is ok I’m getting less pain by the day and now I’m back day to day 16 post op 😩 so I will do as I’m told and do absolutely nothing, it’s just not worth it, I just couldn’t wait to get back to exercise.
You will be fine and looking back telling yourself you were so glad you had it done, I don’t know of one person with any regrets. Look at it as a positive move in your life xx 😘
Thanks for the replys everyone 😊 i was ok the day after 🙈 these hormones arw doing my head in lol!! Im trying to keep myself busy which is helping i think, and iv got plans up until thursday, so fingers crossed il have no more melt downs!! Still feeling nervous but also know this is what iv been waiting for and hopefully soon il start feeling more like myself. Feel silly looking back on it, but also know that i prob just needed that cry ( or 7! ) But i really do appriciate all of you taking the time to reply to me.

Hey everyone,
The op is done!!! Had surgery thursday was home by friday, up and about moving, making cups of tea ect. today has prob been the worst pain wise, feel like i can almost pin-point the exact location of pain internally very weird!! Been told to start a hrt gel tomorrow, but not feeling effects of massive change like i thought i would with ovaries being removed. Also can not sleep, having little naps here and there but not a good decent block sleep which is frustrating!! Hope everyone else is doing well.
