So I could really use some prayer...
So about a month ago I quit taking my medicine, Dr's advice. Part of taking it was from the post partum depression...BUT it has been 3 years since I had her so I am sure taking it was just a habit, maybe need? Anyway, increasingly I have become more agitated, either I am sleeping way more, or sleeping way less. I am just not predictable, like I fly off the handle if shoes are left out or toothpaste is not cleaned out of the sink. Little things to others but HUGE to me. I want/crave order, it makes me nicer! So now with starting in on school with sweet big brown eyed Dale I just lose it if he doesn't make the "l" perfectly straight! Oh man I am so not nice. Makes me wonder if I should even home school. Then I will just get sad, mad, have headaches. I know that I need to lose weight, really bad. But any remark, however given, sets me off. I am wondering if there is something I could do rather than meds to help. Would working out help that much with the moods? I know it would help health wise...
Okay well the neighbor kids are here so I better go and play! Oh I hope they don't smear toothpaste everywhere!!!
Love, E

Okay, first of all, Ms. Perfectionist, change the word "loose" to "lose." You did this twice, which isn't so bad, but just be aware of this since you are homeschooling! ;)
Second of all, you totally need an exercise program--NOT because of weight. You need to exercise because God gave us a great antidepressant chemicals that are released when we exercise called endorphins. It glorifies Him when you are taking care of your body. Exercise can be a wonderful act of worship! I guess I'm just going to have to call you. --Love, Your Personal Trainer
