I had a total thyroidectomy last year. It was a roller coaster experience but since then, I don’t feel like myself. I’m not overly sad because my family got my back all the time so I don’t feel like I am depress but I do feel empty.
For example, yesterday I feel like I can conquer the world and then today, I just want to bawl my eyes out, not do anything. I do think that it’s my hormones doing it’s thing sometimes. I take 150g levothyroxine a day and calcium supplements because I also have hypocalcemia due to my damaged parathyroids. After I was operated, I gained weight (lots), mild fatigue, and experience excessive hair loss. It does shake my insecurities because I’m still on my early 20s and I feel like I am 42.
I’m often overwhelm with my emotions. Like all of my emotions are over the top then lately, I noticed that I get angry easily or sad. But sometimes, I just can’t pinpoint what I really feel and it sucks. I do get happy, like sincerely happy and laugh like there’s no tomorrow, then suddenly this feeling just seep the life out of me. Like I can go on a day without feeing like this but it’s like a ghost, it haunts me suddenly.
I wanna ask if do you guys thinks that this is just some hormonal imbalances because I have hypothyroidism or should I seek a professional help from a psychiatrist or a psychologist?
