Feeling Weepy

[jaxx]

Did any of you feel a bit weepy before your op? I am this evening. I would like a moments peace in my head, all I can think about is what's going to happen on Wednesday. :wave_cry:

my love, this is a place i think we've all been, you've been brave enough to get this far, Wednesday is the 1st day of the rest of your life, embrace it, and enjoy it, nerves are a wonderful thing, put it this way, if you weren't nervous there'd be sommat wrong, best of luck in the best decision you've ever made x

youll be fine have a nice hot bath tonight and relax xxx

your feelings are completely normal. When you think about how your life and body are about to change it is not surprising that we have a few weepy moments. Just keep focusing on why you are doing this and what you want out of life. Hand on my heart it is the best thing that has happened to me in a long time. Good luck for Wednesday and I look forward to welcoming you to the losers bench xxx

Completely normal to feel the way you do - it is a life changing experience but you have ALL of us here and no matter what you go through someone will always help and be here.

Sending special hugs with fairy dust to get you through this time xx

I think it must be normal, mine is not till monday and I cant sleep and its just crazy.
Try (stupid thing) to calm down like bully has said have a nice warm bath tonight read a book or mag and go through your bag again and think why you need this x
take care x

God I did but mostly about the fact that I had to take my beloved moggies to a cattery and my boy was so traumatised that he wet himself - that kinda took the edge off the surgery for me LOL! Nothing like a pet crisis. You will be fine - loads of luck to you.

Thanks so much for your replies. It's really helped me being a part of this forum and having all your experiences to draw on.

I had a bit of a shock this morning to wake up and find 5 inches of snow staring back at me! lol. My Great Auntie lives near the hospital in Wirral though and she's just phoned my mum to say that it's raining there, no snow. So as long as we can get out of this snow and onto the motorways I think I'll get there tomorrow. My only other worry is that I'll get there and they'll cancel my op as they'll be short staffed because of the snow. Amazing what sort of worries go through your head isn't it? lol

Many thanks once again to everyone for their warmth and good wishes.

My op is on Friday and I found myself feeling weepy last night so it is good to hear it is a normal reaction. Take your inspriration from all the happy, healthy folks on this site who have already been through it and come out on the other side safely. Be kind to yourself, do things you enjoy or whatever it takes to distact you. I have been diligently cleaning my flat, right up to cleaning the plug sockets, mmm Good luck, and looking forward to your reading your first post op post.

i cried like a baby the night before my op but i must say i felT beTTer foR doing it and calmer as well just let it all out, cleaning is a great distraction as is sorting wardrobes and cupboards when you leave hospital you wont be able to do much so its nice that its all done ready for you when you are sorting wardrobe just think how different its gonna look in a years time and just remember how lucky we are to have gotten this surgery there are thousands of people still waiting or trying to get funding or who have been turnt down everything is gonna be great keep us updated

I think you are really honest thinking things through. I am an absolute coward and have managed successfully to charge any thoughts straight out of my mind, as I am so fearful. Keep reading the diaries, thats what I do, there is success waiting for you, its scarey to change your life, even if it is for the better, there will always be that trepidation.

All the best for your big day. I always take a moment of of my day to send a silent thought out to people having their surgeries.Keep an ear open for mine!

Tbh i wasnt nervous or scared i had the best surgeon in the country imo who knew what he was doing, i'de researched the op and knew that everything possible had been done by the hospital for me to safely have the op and finally i knew my life would be changing for the better when it was done and up to now i've not been disappointed, good luck Jaxx and start to think about this time next yr xx
