yay for you!

I am suffering with you with the insomnia. I can't take it. Last night I was up AGAIN for 3 hours. VERY annoying. Can you nap during the day? My DD has actually been good about letting take a 20 minute power nap (she doesn't nap), and it helps.

Congrats Natasha.

I am off the meds completely too, for about a week. I have been a bit cranky with poor DP and i have had to work harder to be more in the moment with my kids to not get frustrated or irritated with their monkeying around.

The thing that caught me off guard is my reaction to politics and cultural issues. I have gotten into some whoppers of arguments with people. To the point that I am weeping later over people's words. I know intellectually that I can't change their minds on the politics, or breastfeeding (That one got uggg-leeee, let me tell you : ) but I am feeling a huge need to express what I feel is right. My poor DP, I corner him when he gets home and he gets an earful of my rants about the current state of affairs X or issue Y. Oy. I hope this part of me can chill out because some of the stuff in the world is just so painful. It is pretty wild, would have never expected this sort of reaction either.

I don't know if it is attributable to my newly SSRI-less state, or just that I have become a hormonal loon.

Just don't mess with me Mamas or I will demand a smackdown :LOL (imagine the ominous Jaws music playing now.....)

Oy oy oy ND
