However, I'm scared.
This was the fourth week in my birth control pill pack, meaning seven days of placebo pills. A week without additional hormones in my system. What if this good mood is the result of a week off the new birth control pills, and not things getting back to normal as life levels out? What if the the weepy, moody, low-libidoed me comes back once I start taking the active pills again? This albeit briefly new and improved me has been SUCH a relief from the suckitude of the last little while that I'm heart broken at the thought of losing me.
I said I'd give these pills another month, and I will. But my doctor's on speed-dial, so if the awful me returns on Monday, I'll be making an appointment as fast as my finger can hit the "send" button.
I don't want to lose myself to the suck. *sigh*
if you dont mind my asking, what are you taking?
ReplyDeleteMy wife goes through the hormonal mess that is birth control pills. It's trial and error until you find a kind that works for you. She's been on so many different types over the years.
ReplyDeleteI hear ya dude. I've been struggling with changing anti-depressants. I've began to wonder if it's not really depression or the IUD that's causing my mood swings. There's just so many variables....
ReplyDeleteI hope you're out of the suck soon. It's no place to be. But! I'm there with you, so let's both get out, m'kay?
