Did Femara make you go crazy?

[Molae06]

I don't know if it's the Femara or the fact that I'm getting really sick and tired of not being able to conceive, or a combination of both, but I think something is making me go crazy.

When I was on Clomid, I did have some moodiness and mood swings, but this is my 2nd month on Femara and I have had the worst mood swings I have ever had.

The other night I got so mad over pretty much nothing that I started shouting at dh and I took all of my medications, the provera, the femara, what was left of the clomid, the prenatals, and threw them into the toilet and flushed them away. Hundred of dollars gone. I started breaking pregnancy tests and ovulation tests in half.

Dh said if it's making me this frustrated and angry, is it even worth it? Starting to wonder, is it? How do all you ladies keep from going absolutely crazy?

I had some mood swings when on both clomid and femara. I think it was partly the medicine but for me when I had the moments like you are talking about it was mostly stress, sadness, and anguish over not being able to conceive or stay pregnant. I tried throwing away hundreds and hundreds of dollars worth of baby and maternity clothes in one of my melt downs...luckily my DH stopped me. I have taken a hammer to hpt before...I know...crazy. For me the melt downs (like that) are few and far between so it is worth it for us. It helps me to talk about it with someone. There are few people in my life who know of our struggles or that we are ttc but the few who do are supportive. I find it helpful to be able to cry and just let out all my feelings. I have thought a few times I had lost all hope but after a little rest and reflection I find I still have it in me and I still have the drive to keep going. The ladies on this site have been a huge help for me as well. I wish you luck on your journey. Hold on a little longer because your rainbow could be just around the corner.

Sorry Hun...I am not the best at advice...just wanted you to know your not alone.

Im sorry that its so hard for you right now.

Clomid actually made me feel that way, femara is much easier on me emotionally.

I hope you get a BFP soon and dont have to deal with this anymore!
