Listening to: The Time Machine on TV
Mood: A bit Down
So on the advice of a friend, I went to the doctor (read
hospital, because that’s where the actual modern doctors are) to test both my
thyroid and my hormones to see if I could get some answers to the great hair
shedding issue and more recently, the urge to chuck things at anyone and
everyone for no reason at all. I was
desperately hoping that there was a pill I could take that would make me feel a
bit normal again and grow hair.
Unfortunately, that isn’t in the cards for me right now. All
of the tests came back as normal. So. No thyroid problems, no hormone problems.
I am back to square one with advice to improve my diet and some advice to get
some more sleep and try meditating for the mood swings. The whole diet advice
just makes me frustrated. I don’t seem to get solid answers on this track and I’m
really at a loss as to what to do about my diet. I eat healthy. Like crazy healthy.
Whole grains, lots of vegetables, lentils, and lots of fruit. Since no one can seem
to pinpoint exactly what I’m missing, it’s damn near impossible to know how to
improve my diet, even though that’s all I’m told.
So I no longer get to blame being a crazy bitch on a hormone
problem. While he’s way to polite to say it, I’m pretty sure Daddy G was
looking forward to finding some answers about this too. So apparently I need to
just step back and get a grip on life. It’s not hard, it’s not stressful, so
why should I give in to getting frustrated so quickly. I guess it’s good to
know that I’m not sick either. I’m definitely thankful to know that. I was just looking for an easy answer that would have been easily fixable.
So now I’m basically going on a mad hunt to see what I can
do about the diet. Let us see how this turns out.
