Hi michelle,
Oh your talking about the change of life so to speak. That does make you feel like you want to scream. Oh no woman likes that part of life at all. The important thing to realize is that you make sure you get stablized hormonally and that you realize that you are going through a process that causes a lot of inbalanced feelings and emotions. Even moments of depression.

Make sure you keep track of your medicationa and have a journal of you feelings.
Make sure you visit your gyno and talk about it with him or her. If your medication is making you feel worse, than by all means talk about it. Hey when I went on Welbutrin wow, it made me feel like a tennis match was going on in my head, very jumpy etc. Some people cannot tolerate certain medications, so make sure you keep in touch with both the pdoc and the gyno.

You will eventually stabilize so try to not think you are going to be like this the rest of your life. I cannot stress enough to keep track of how you feel, and even what you eat can be over stimulating you. Too much coffee? ETC.

Try to take time to read about what you are going through, there are some herbal things you can try to help you get by. Your not going mad, your not alone, all women experience it some worse than others. Make sure you keep tabs on your hormone levels, can cause depression if they drop too much. It isn't you, it is the change of life as they say, it just takes time to adjust.
