Hi ladies! I'm hoping you can give me some advice of the first step to take. My emotions are really all over the place and have been for a long time, I think I'm just really getting sick of being like this. My problem is my mood swings, one day I'll be so in love with my husband and think I'm the luckiest lady alive with everything he does for me/us and then it will only take the smallest thing and I'll crack it and start thinking about divorce and being away from him. It usually takes me overnight at least to get out of the mood and go back to 'normal'. We have been married nearly 2 years, have a 11 month old but it has been happening for years! I don't no what to do, I hate that I have those thoughts but I just can't break the mood once I'm in it!!

I am a lot like this too, so know how you feel, it is awful! I think a lot of it is hormonal and as you have only a young baby, you are probably still recovering from birth. But you said that you have been like this for years. I am the same but after children it got worse for me. It might be worth going to get hormones checked to see if you are out of balance. I had too much estrogen at one point and the Dr gave me testerone and this really balanced my mood and made me so much easier to live with! Just speak with your Dr about your mood swings and see what their view is, if you are on pill aswell this might not be helping matter. Big hugs, I know how it feels! PS I also take Vitamin B and evening primrose oil and a good multivitamin for women (Swisse) and this seems to help me feel more balanced and exercise.
I recently went through a crazy bout of something similar and what caused it was ... the contraception I was on (Implanon) ... I literally broke up with my boyfriend because I couldn't stand my own mood swings!
