Does this happen to you?

For those going through IVF/IUI do you ever feel hopeless one day, angry the next, scared, in bargaining mode, then super positive and hopeful? Right now, I am in denial regarding my DOR. I feel like my docs are crazy and there's nothing wrong with me, it's just either a bad month or they are screwing up my protocol. sure maybe the meds put me on an emotional roller coaster, but this feels like the stages of death/loss. What do you feel and do you do anything to calm yourself?

Yes. Absolutely. It is a constant roller coaster. I pray a lot and when I start having hopeless, negative thoughts, I push those out of my mind and try not to allow myself to think them. Only God knows how this going to turn out and I try to trust in that.

Sometimes it helps me to know that I am normal and the way I am feeling doesn't make me crazy. That's why DS and these ladies have helped me so much. Hope114, you are normal and are in good company. Hugs to you sweet lady!
