Hey Kradle...

I started mine on Tuesday - that is why I was such a crazy person that day when I posted. It's totally normal! Our hormones are all out of whack and I definitely want what I can't have when aunt flow's come to town.

I suggest you go out to Burger King or McDonald's or something and get lots of food and chocolate and hide under a huge blanket and watch some bad (or good) TV.
I also take L Tyrosine and B1 vitamins.

Hang in there! You feel like shit now but it will pass!!

I'M ROOTING FOR YOU!!!

PS. I hate periods. :/

Kradle-I thank God I'm over that stage! Hormonal and water levels seem to send us crazy and craving. I've actually researched this on and off over the years(not extensively)and I never found a whole lot of science around it but it's definitely real. Bris I do disagree on the junk food--eating healthy is more important than ever. Here's a fun link to distract you for a bit Kradle--there's some good info in there too.

Kradle -
I cannot offer any advice either...I get a shot once every 3 months...and Viola!, no periods! I do hope you feel better though...

Kradle,

Aren't you (and I) getting close to the big M? I'm thinking of talking to my doc about hormone replacement, as I wonder if my moods are affected by this stage in my life. Might be something to consider...

Thanks everyone. I am having toast and cheese and watching the Movie Limitless .
Bri I will pull the blanket over my head once I get the kids. Wish I had a baby sitter.

RC thanks for the link. Will watch tonight!
Don't feel like eating....stil feel like drinking...I'll brush my teeth and drink water.
I'd thought K9 that by 50 this would be a memory...maybe I should look into shots

I hate this but love u guys

K9 it takes them away, but does it also take away PMS? If so, miraculous!!

Um Kradle don't be disappointed. It's reading not watching.
I'm 52 and my body gave it up a year ago. I'd say you are right normal going into menopause later than sooner. Sooner is a sign that there are other issues imo. Prolly don't make you feel good at the moment but I hope you don't mess with nature too much. If you are cramping a bag of frozen peas or warm hot water bottle helps too. Hang in there. xo

BTW, I haven't had a period since 10 days after my first quit. Am a bit worried, although I had been skipping some months already.

Yes! I have no symptoms. What the shot does is prevents you from ovulating. No egg dropped, no hormones triggered to expel it. Yes, it's a miracle!!!

Mama,
Just a curiosity !
Do you really do fun with sex when drunk.If so please try once in sober mind being fully aware of it and enjoy a moment by moment you will cry and can't forget your task...everything is much better when we are sober!
How do you think.Sorry to let you know I am living apart my wife...lol

Breast cancer survivor - woohoo Mama Bear!!! :l :h

Thanks Pink Angel! :l :thanks:


I do agree with RC that eating healthily is a lot better then eating junk, but I am just saying that it made me feel better when I got my period and was dealing with a lot of stress and crap in my day. It's my one or two days to "cheat" from my clean eating and eat copious amounts of chocolate (instead of booze!) I think anything other then booze is okay early in sobriety.

I also am on depo K9 - although I have stopped taking it the last little while and just got a visit from my friend...it's so sporadic and random. :/ I am going to probably go back on it. Long story as to why I went off...but yep, once every three months, shot - wham bam thank you ma'am. You're good to go!

Hope you're feeling a bit better Kradle.
I also find ridiculously "guilty pleasure" shows like Keeping Up With The Kardashians helps, lol! Or any of those housewives show.
Hang in there! You will wake up tomorrow and feel fantastic that you stayed away from the booze!

BIG HUGS!!!
