Six weeks and absolutely miserable
I’m mainly posting this looking for short term advice for how to manage my symptoms.
I plan on getting an abortion in two weeks, and i’m completely miserable.
My mood swings are off the chart especially since i need to come off my psychiatric meds due to it interacting with the abortion pills in very dangerous ways. I feel uncontrollable anger towards literally EVERYTHING and i’m crying all the time. currently i can barely talk to my bf without getting irrationally angry at him. I’m also just not doing well with the situation, im really upset that this is the better choice for me.
physically i quite literally have every symptom of pregnancy i could have. i can’t eat anything or drink anything but water without throwing up. i have severe heartburn and my muscles have never felt so week. i’m cramping in my abdomen, i’ve been getting practically no sleep. I’ll lay in bed for hours without being able to actually fall asleep and when I do, it feels like i’m not even entering REM. I’m so tired and exhausted. my back hurts horribly bad making it painful to do literally anything. i have never felt so horrible all around in my life.
obviously i know this isn’t uncommon, and although i feel like im being dramatic, im aware that many feel this way during pregnancy. I just don’t know what I should do to manage the symptoms in the next two weeks. besides over the counter pain meds bc they have being doing absolutely nothing for me.
