I wasn't sure whether to post this in the mental health section or not, so here goes. I think I may have a problem with my hormones rather than mental health but the symptoms seem to be rather similar.
I can go for a good few days feeling good, feeling fulfilled looking after my children (DD aged 3, DS aged 8 months) and then I seem to crash down and have a terrible day. I just want to lash out, I wake up and really can't bear to be in the same house as my family. I can be perfectly civil to friends, neighbours etc but can have blazing rows with my husband etc. When I feel like this, I don't want to be married, don't want to have children and just seem to try to get through the day until I go can go back to sleep again and hope the next day is better.
This is putting a real strain on my relationship, not surprisingly. But other days, I feel fine! I just really don't understand it and wondered if anybody else had felt like this. There doesn't seem to be any pattern - eg time of month etc. I have just re-started the pill after having no contraception after childbirth but again, it's only happening to me a few times a month. Has anybody else come across this?
Many thanks for any help.
