I will admit it, I can be a grumpy, moody person at times. Or that's what my husband tells me. I try to be friendly and delightful as much as a I. During my last surrogacy experience I took the Estrace pills just like I am this time. My emotions were out of control. I could feel myself getting irritated or upset and I would just go with it. This time is different.
Yesterday I knew the meds had started working. I felt that wave of emotion come over me. Situations would arise and I was easily angered. I quickly learned that these little situations that shouldn't have bothered me were REALLY getting to me. And no matter how much time was passing I couldn't get over it.
This morning I woke up still irritated by things from yesterday and I decided I wasn't going to allow this drug to control my emotions for the next few months. I grabbed my girl Jersey and headed to the dog park with a friend. It was good to get outside in the fresh (cold) air and forget everything else. It worked. I got back to my car feeling great and I had let go of what was bothering me. That is my focus for the next 3-4 months while on the Estrogen meds. Find a way to escape and reset things, even if for 5 minutes.
My plan may not always work. I may get bitchy. I may yell or shed some tears. But on the bright side I won't be on these pills forever and the pleasant, friendly, delightful Lisa will be returning! haha
