Ok ladies. I am three shots of Lupron and 4 weeks into birth control pills. The last two days have been horrible for me. I literally want to rip everybody's head off. I have yelled at everybody I love yesterday and today I'm stuck at work with a guy that annoys me on a good day. Today he is making me crawl out of my skin! Help Any advice on how to keep calm would be appreciated. I'm going to accupuncture every week and have had weekly massages


Help!

Aw, Charlotte, I'm sorry! You can make it (and not end up committing crimes)! Just remember, it's not really *YOU*! And the best thing is, this won't last. Wish you weren't stuck at work with annoying people, but even on days when I didn't have to interact with people, I still felt like crawling out of my own skin, so not sure being home would help you. You can do this, just focus on the bundle of joy, and keep your chin up!
Hang in there...You probably aren't REALLY crazy... (probably)

I'm 3 days onto BC pills, so is this what I have to look forward too? Nooooo.

But remember, it will all be worth it when you hold your little one!

Hi Charlotte,
I'm sorry that your emotional rollercoaster has begun. When I started my IVF cycle, I didn't take Lupron. I was on BCP and then Menopur, Gonal F, and Ganerelix. I remember being really bloated and I always felt like I would zap out and lose my temper with the smallest things. I hated feeling like I wasn't in control of my emotions. I work with sick and injured people everyday and sometimes I was downright EVIL!!! Felt really unbalanced and angry most of the time. Charlotte, this too shall pass and just remember it's all worth it. Continue go to acupuncture, massages, limit your sugar intake and drink plenty of water.

Wishing everyone continued strength and courage to get through this crazy emotional time.
