I need to know if i should get tested

[dleeann]

I have pcos and i am about to turn 31 and well still having the terrible 2's syndrome most would say....but here is the thing i was adopted and just found out that my birth grandmother has Schizophrenia and bipolar.  there are times when i get so upset that i get these hot flashes, and start to shake, and feel like i can't stand to be in my own skin, and then i just burst out with anger. sometimes i will be crying when i am saying the hurtful things other times i cry after i walk away.  And then i will focus on something else and its like it has never happened i am just as calm before it started.  Its like someone just turned on a light switch and thats what starts the episodes and just as such after.  I really need some answers this has been going on way too long, i already know i could benefit from therapy but is this a bigger problem then just talking to someone about my feelings.

Hi, I also agree with what everyone else has said but my Bp is made worse by my hormones.. half of my episodes occur at that time,. I've had hormonal tests because I had symptoms of menopause, they all came back fine.. it was the Bp mixed with PMS! Sooo not a good place! It sounds like you have a lot to deal with right now, so you definitely need some help, good luck hun :-)

Hey, It kind of sounds to me like  hormones. the hot flushes and shaking and having mood swings/anger can be related to a hormone imbalance. I would suggest talking to your doctor, they will be able to tell you more than me. And i think therapist is good place to start and i agree with Lily.

Maybe take some time out for yourself, try and relax if you can and enjoy yourself even with the small things. what ever you like doing, make time for yourself if you don't already. :)

well I think if your therapist is any good he/she willbe able to determine if you need added help like maybe meds....lily
