Miserable and tearful

I seem to be an emotional wreck today, if someone so much as says boo to me i burst into tears. The self service till at Tesco's had me in tears it went from going slow to jamming. :confused:
we went £50 back into the O/D that OH said he had shut down. The phone bills in at £111. There are 2 more school trips and a school disco to pay for.
Worst of all I havn't had a period for 3 months since I came off the injection and the doctors want me to go in for tests, just to make sure nothings wrong. Hopefully I've got PMT.:o
So there you go. Hope everyone else is having a better day.

    You poor thing :(

    You probably know this already but it is VERY common to not have periods for quite some time after coming off the injection. Don't worry about it! :)

    Took me 6 months to have them again, and my mate took 8 months (in fact they decided to return on her white wedding day:rotfl: )

    So i wouldn't worry about it too much :o

    Thank you so much. I try to keep telling myself it's fine. I've been told it can be 6 months, but I got that stressed I did a pregnancy test after 2.

    Hi Broken Hearted - Just so you know, when I was on the injections, they made me soooooo miserable. I was a nervous wreck, and the depression lasted for quite a while afterwards, apparently, it can even be worsened by initial withdrawal so what your going through is just a side effect - your not going mad or anything! (Which is what I thought when it happened to me!!!)Hope you feel better - maybe try getting active to get the blood pumping and those endorphins flowing to make you feel a bit better?

    oooh, me too! Was fine 1st time, second time felt boated, sick & depressed for moths afterwards (come to think of it am still bloated 15 yrs later but that's another story!!!)

    It probably is PMT you've got. Remember the mantra - women get it, men suffer from it!!!!!:p

    Oh what a lovely subject! :rolleyes: :p

    BH, just think of the money your saving on pads or whatever it is you women use! ;)

    And if it's any concolation I've still got man-flu and my testicles ache? :confused:

    Ladies, form an orderly queue to offer to rub them better! :cool: :rotfl:
