Oh sweetie I am so sorry to hear all the things you got going on, hang in there and take one day at a time. I pray that things get better and that you are able to find a job soon!

I'm so sorry. I had a lot of things happen to me last year that were really crazy.

Accident, two knee surgeries , two hand surgeries and neck epidural. Then my daughter suffered a concussion.

The only thing that made me feel better was to eat and drink. Maybe that's why ( besides the job/ accident) because we turned to food for comfort and now that is gone. Easy to say but reach out to friends and family for support.

Lots of luck.

That's a lot to handle. If this continues then it might be worth taking for a short time. I would try to find new things to do to help soothe your emotions. Today I am going for a mani/pedi. Be kind to yourself.

So sorry to hear everything is outta sorts right now. You do have a lot on your plate and still getting back in the swing of things after surgery. The emotional mess I felt fortunately resolved not too long post op. If it continues it's definitely worth seeing someone and maybe some meds to help or some talk therapy. You have a lot to deal with right now so it might be helpful as you try to get things in order again. You can do this and you have us. Remember no matter what you are going to be ok! Things will work out. Hugs!!

damn girl..sheeeezz..when it rains it pours..the depression is a normal side effect. I had it. but first let me say this->Im not bio-polar or have a affection for depression to begin with. I had a bad bout of depression, call my psychiatrist, she told me it was normal, but if it hasn't pass in time, we would start discussing meds, I had meds, so I waited it out. Thank god it finally went away. Horrible experience, that was.

It gets worse but then it gets better ...there's nothing wrong with getting some help and meds to level yourself out...in fact maybe you just need a progesterone shot ... We look forward for this surgery and have all the expectations of a better life but it doesn't happen right away and when things happen that's outside our control it can bring us more down ...I'm sorry for what your going through but it will get better ....we are all here for you

Hi stasea, I am sorry to hear about the job and the car, that stinks, I feel ya though, I am the exact same way if I don't take my depression meds. I take them every morning and believe me they help. I take cymbalta, and if I forget it I know it. I start to cry for no reason and just am a total wreck for the day. There is nothing wrong with taking a depression med or mood stabilizer? I know a lot of people who take them and you know with all the changes your body is making right now that might be the reason. Best suggestion is talk to your doctor???

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
