Cryimg and feeling down

I'm on day 8 post-op. I'm physically recovering well and am 19 pounds down. Yes, I want to eat but don't feel physical hunger. My problem is that yesterday and today I am in a terrible mood and/or feeling down and depressed. I'm crying unexpectedly for no reason. Any one else experiencing this?

I feel the same way since 2weeks after .. A month after I feel like down.. I go out with friends and try to enjoy the time @ the end of the night I can feel Down.. I'm happy I lost 27 pound but still feel down .. Anyone els ?

Sometimes it is hard to look at the positives...I feel better physically, but sometimes now it seems all anyone wants to talk about is my surgery. But other times all of the positive energy coming my way freaks me out. 9 weeks post op and changes still happen on a hourly basis. I just try to focus on the positives, but sometimes it can be hard. Just hang in there, we have all dealt with amazing challenges in one way or the other and I am confident we will get through these as well!

Thanks for the words. My issue is not like that. I'm 9 days out and doing well. Just struggling with the hormonal changes. I'm feeling positive just cry and feel down for no reason at times. That's why it doesn't make sense except explained by hormones.

Reading all this reminds me when I had my surgery 3 years ago how sad and angry I was at the beginning, but it gets better with time, easier. Wish I would have had a venue like this. Just hang on, all these feelings are normal for what's going on with your bodies right now. It's all worth it

Im sipping on water as much as i possibly can, but i feel so nauseous. I dont know what to do and im getting scared of ending up in the hospital.. Any advice?

Our doc has said if you struggle with protein to call the office. I would start with that.

Ladies I can say this first I'm 5 weeks out and just started to feel "normal". Heads clearer, I feel strong again, finally feel up to a little exercise like walking and going out with friends on occasion . I felt like I was recovering forever. We need to be patient and I'm not lol I want it all done yesterday. Since our weather has finally become nice go sit on your porch for a few minutes a couple times a day feel that sun we waited so long for sip a refreshing drink smell that fresh air and relax. It will all be so mucho better very very soon. Your actually on your way to a better you!
