 Topic: Hormonal at work
Posted: 10 July 2006 at 9:33am |
I have noticed that I am gettign mroe and more hormonal (fine - to be expected) but I am findign it hard to keep it together at work - thingds that would usually irritate me are now full blown reasons for tears to well up in my eyes and wantign to storm out. I know its hormones, and I know it will pass, but I have a lot of people to deal with and plus I have a team to manage and am expected to keep cool when things are going wrong, thats my job, but I am finding it really hard. Also I am takin thigns so personally its aweful, normally I just shrug this stuff off but I am really takign it to heart and days later these small things are still bugging me. I feel like I am on an emotional roller coaster, it's aweful. At home its a bit different, DH understands that I am hormonal and will forgive me, but at work it is so hard... sorry ot sure if there is an answer to this, just wanted to rant. I JUST WANT TO GET BACK TO NORMAL!!!! I AM TIRED OF FEELING LIKE THIS!!!

Hi Mrs Frantic,
Don't worry you are not alone. My hormones have been going up and down like a yoyo myself and like you say it is very hard to control and especially at work. Some days you just don't feel that happy and I get sick of people saying things like "what's wrong with you today?" expecting you to always be your chirpy self when you don't feel like being "happy" all the time because you feel emotional and some days feel like strangling people. I had a moment on Saturday and was lucky that my sister was there to help me out and of course hubby.
Keep your chin up - not too long for you now but I do totally understand where you are coming from

My new best friend is rescue remedy. It is not a magical cure but I'm finding it very helpful in those moments when I am this close to losing it in a fit of hormones. It works quite quickly and is safe for baby.
I credit it as the reason MIL and I are still on speaking terms!
Hope your day gets better Frantic!

I completly understand!!!! Last week at work everyone was really peeing me off!  . On thursday I had to leave the kitchen for 15 minutes because I was about to burst into tears.
One of the ladies that works in reception keeps asking whats wrong and that I don't seem like my normal self, I just wanna tell her piss off I feel like crap and if you don't leave me alone I will bop you on the head. lol
And this is only the start of it all. Its hard cause no one really knows at work yet.
So yeah, completly sympathise (sp!) with you.

I second the vote for Rescue Remedy, it's great ! Has been an absolute lifesaver for me too.

I am the same. Unfortunately.
I am usually really happy and bright and chatty but I just cant be bothered. I hardly have 20 mins to sit down and do nothing at home or at work and am just finding everything too much to be bothered with!!Life is too busy and I am too tired! Especially when people ring or ask stupid questions. I am being very "short".
Actually I think thats me in general at the moment!!!
Grrr!

The poor head chef, his partner is pregnant too. So hormonal women at home and at work. lol .
