Balancing Act

[angelak]

It would seem that this morning has been one of those days that... everyone has. Except I can't help but think hormonally speaking, it was an explosion of sorts. I'm not one to blame hormones typically.
This being said, I am going to try and schedule an appointment with my Ob-Gyn. Although I have been on said Birth Control for a while, it would seem I have had lesser episodes every 2-3 months on this particular pill. This time is the last time I want to have this on account of living through chemicals.

It is worth a shot, especially seeing as Walgreen's miss-filled my prescription the year before this one, and the reason I told my Ob-Gyn I wanted to stay with the miss-filled BCs was because the switching of the meds was rocky for me. I may sound ridiculous when I walk back in there and say that although I demanded the mis-prescribed pills this year, I would like to switch to something that doesn't create the equivalent of what I now recognize to be a panic attack.

Does any of this make sense? Regardless. Somehow it didn't seem like it was the meds (I figured it was ME) until today - when I decided every one of my life goals were worth abandoning.

That is very not-me.

It totally makes sense. Our hormones mess with us even when we're not on pills to *help* mess them up. *hug* If you think it's the pills then I would definitely go to the doc and get the ones you think you need to be on. And yah, they might look at you a little weird, but you realize that the other ones worked better with your system and after trying the ones you're on for a while, you've realized that they mess with your system and you'd rather be on the other ones because you're more comfortable with that.

I hope you can get it all worked out...I know it's hard when we don't feel like ourselves and it makes us second guess everything we've worked so hard to accomplish!

Makes total sense. It took me a while to find the ones that I liked that toned down the "crazy/panic/CHANGE IT" once a month. It is largely reduced when I found the dose/pill/stuff that worked for me. Good luck with the switching - and if your OBGYN is worth their money, then she won't look at you funny and know exactly what you are talking about.
