been a week, and i am a mess
so, update...it's been a week since i had the surgical. i am still cramping as i pass the blood clots and my hormones are wacked out. i have suffered from depression my whole life, and i fear this experience is putting me in a bad place...i am a mess. my depression is way worse than it has been in years. i am having severe mood swings/anxiety/suicidal feelings. i am really worried coz i've had a panic attack this week, i keep thinking about killing myself, tho i know that's SO irrational...sigh,i just feel so emotionally haywire and outta control.
though i am still a bit shaken by the experience i don't regret my choice, in fact, all these emotions confirm that i am not ready to bring a child into my mess of a life.
i was wondering if the hormones plus starting for the 1st time ever on birth control is a big reason that i've been so depressed and mood swingy? i go in for my checkup this week, so i suppose i'll discuss that w/the dr., but i was wondering what all of your post-abortion coping mechanisms are?
thanks again!
