I am really going through the motions. This mood is driving me and everyone around me crazy. Everything is completely overwhelming To me.

I usually never cuss, and every other word out of me is the first bomb today. I keep getting adrenaline rushes followed by intense anger. The clutter in my house is making me freak out. All of the sounds, smells, sensations are driving me crazy.

I want to get up and start cleaning but every time I stand up everything goes black and I'll make myself pass out if I push too far. I am so out of sorts. I can't stand myself. I'm being a huge jerk for no reason. I know it doesn't matter that the house is a mess. But for some reason I cannot handle it.

I took a crap load of valerian and it calmed me down for about an hour. I keep telling myself this will pass. And it does, but it comes back. I felt super angry and took my blood pressure once I turned red and got all sweaty and it was 184/133. ***??

I'm completely aware of how irrational I'm being. I can face that fact but still feel soooo mad. Literally about nothing. Lord help my guy today. I'm a handful. Not helping that our son is going crazy too today.

Any suggestions?? What is this???

That is Lyme rage. There are a bunch of physiological reasons for it, but knowing that doesn't make it much easier to deal with. Except understanding that it is the disease and not your personality makes it easier to say you are sorry to your loved ones.

Just keep telling yourself that it is the disease not you. Find an outlet that you can accomplish. Writing? Cleaning something small that you can do sitting down?

Avoid ripping peoples' faces off! Like stay out of stressful social situations. Don't go to the supermarket. Put off making that phone call.

Do something quiet that you love. Watch the sunset. Watch a tv program. Listen to music.

Could be the new moon adding to this. Hope it passes soon.

This is no joke. I feel like a completely different person. I miss ME. The level headed always calm and relaxed person I really am.

Are there any drugs or supplements or herbs that help?? I feel so bad for my guy. I told him I was sorry and gave him a hug and he just seems really put off. I didn't direct anything towards him even. Just seeing me like this is stressing him out I guess. This is just as debilitating as pain and all the other stuff tbag happens to us. Hate this!!!!

I recently went through this and my LLMD gave me A shot of Rocephin. It helped a lot! I go in this week for my picc line.

It will clear up the anxiety and confusion. It is a long road but you can make it. Never give up.

I'm sorry, IHL! It seems you can't catch a break! I emailed you.

No breaks for me lol. I keep telling myself all of this builds character. I know one thing is for sure, I'm exhausted! I keep thinking it can't get worse and then it does.

So far I'm still alive lol.
