Not sure what's up with me this week
Sep. 5th, 2008 06:38 pmI hate my hormones, and apparently my thyroid isn't working properly anymore. Just got my results back from blood test and it looks like I need medication to bring my hormone levels back to where they should be. I had a rather frustrating conversation with the doctor's office asssistant as she tried to explain I need to cut fried foods out of my diet which was rather frustrating to hear considering I rarely eat fried foods.
Lately, I've been moody, cranky, tired and fighting feeling depressed. There is no need for me to feel like crap or a failure. I got into grad school, I haven't missed any deadlines for school. I have my worksheet completely filled out and now I just need to write the narrative part of my project for the first draft due next wednsday. Things are falling into place, I even got some of my project done today.
The only thing that makes sense for this depression is stupid hormones.
Also, I'd really like to know where the hell my self esteem went? Or did I at some point after graduating college lose all track of finishing things on a deadline (please no one mention my second sweet charity vid that I'm offically a year late on)
I don't know why I keep having these mini-panic attacks of thinking I can't do this. Obviously I can. Lots of people go to graduate school and graduate with a degree and I don't even have kids.
I'm not even 30 and I'm in pain every day, exhuasted half the time, and unable to finish anything. I'm tempted to get the thyroid medicine the doctor's office recommended just in the hopes that I'll actually feel better again.
edit: tonight, I think I need a large bowl of buttery popcorn, and watch SGA and more BSG. (nothing like seeing people having it worse than me to make me feel better)
