Mental health issues and hormonal changes

Kiersten

I have been having a really hard time lately. I got a new doctor a few months ago and we decided to try weight loss medication to see if that would help my body regulate itself. Well I lost thirty pounds in just over two months. I also had my period after only six months for the first time in like four ish years. That part I was happy about. Well I’m used to having a horrendous period once a year and now I’m having the mood swings and easily aggravated and crying a lot when I feel like I just had my period. The way I grew up this amount of sensitivity and emotion all the time was either frowned upon or used to get something the “emotional” person wanted. But that’s not what this post is about. Does anyone have any good pointers or advice for how to handle this mentally? Am I supposed to wait for it to pass on its own? Is this normal? Is it going to get better? I just don’t know how to handle this type of situation. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I just got married this should be the happiest time of my life and I’m just so mad and sad all of the time.
