Do you ever just get tired of it all? Tired of being afraid of what the future holds. Tired of knowing your overweight but you feel like to much of a piece of sh*t that you have no motivation to change. Do you ever see babies or pregnant women and feel like that wont ever be you. Do you ever just get discouraged? Tired of having to pluck everyday. Tired of losing hair on your head? Of gaining weight? Of not feeling normal. Not getting your period unless your on the pill? Does it ever hurt so bad that you just don't care? Like the more you care the more it hurts so you try to block everything out? Do you ever just want to be that girl for one day? The girl that makes heads turn? The girl thats so confident and so beautiful? Do you ever just cry? Cry to be normal? Have you ever stopped taking your medicine because you just cant handle the way it makes you feel? Have you ever felt so alone? So scared? So EMBARRASSED of who you are and how you look? I'm just wondering why it hurts so bad? Why I have hair on my belly, my face, my butt, my arms.. Why do I feel like a monster? Like I will be alone forever? What man will love me? When there are so many other thin, beautiful girls?... I'm scared. I don't feel like a women. And I'm tired. Tired of having to hide. Pluck these hairs on my chest, so worried I might miss one! I am sick of this all.......

Gosh yes. Mainly overweight. I am so sick of it. I try so hard to work at it but then do not see results. I know being skinny isnt going to solve problems but it might make my self esteem rise a bit. The man thing too. I want nothing more than to get married and have a family. That has been my dream since I was able to dream. I'm 21, have yet to date at all or have a boyfriend. Partly it's my fault because I dont really look to pursue it but really, who would want me? You're a pretty girl, Rae from what I see, if that's you in your avatar picture. Just wanted to tell you that.
Yes, Rae! I would break down a lot with those very thoughts. Wanted to crawl under a rock and never come out. Never thought a man could ever love me and why should he want to. The PCOS depression really sucked my world dry it seemed. I got married when I was 24 and he is the most understanding person I've had the pleasure to know. I'm certain there is someone like that for you. I know how you're feeling. It's so intense but I encourage you to continue to talk to everyone on this forum and anyone offline that you know you can trust with this information. For me, it's always been my Mom because she has this, too. Wasn't able to have children but when she was in her early 20's she had surgery on her ovaries and took fertility drugs. She was able to have my brother and was told she wouldn't be able to have anymore kids. Six years later she had me. I am 30, now, no children and it's frustrating. I've yet to even see a doctor about my PCOS because of money and not trusting doctors. lol Even though your world may seem like it's consumed with PCOS, fight that thought. You are more than the PCOS. You'll kick it in it's booty and thrive, Rae!

Yes i do hun i store alot inside and i have outbursts every month. I sometimes feel like i cannot handle being the way i am anymore. I stop and start diets all the time, i try to get my life back on track as normal as i can but something always brings me back down with a bump.
I hate strugling with my confidence and self esteem.

Rae86 - BEFORE METFORMIN yes I understand how you feel. I felt like that (back then I didnt' know I had insulin resistance and PCOS).
With the metformin and low GI eating I have lost about 25 pounds and feel so much better so I reccommend anyone with PcOS who has IR (which most do), get on the extended release metformin.
You will lose weight and most of all prevent diseases and an earlier death in your future. You will be less likely to get heart disease, Diabetes type 2, breaste and endometrial cancer and cancer in general, alzeihmefrs and all the other diseases which are linked with constantly hight insulin and sugar levels.
Untreated Insulin resistance also leads to increased and fastger "aging" of the body.
The extra hair on chin and losing scalp hair is still an issue for me but losing the weight has made me feel so much better. With the metformin I don't have a huge appetite and sugar and carb gravings anymore which is great.
Speaking of crying I did nearly cry after getting my chin waxed at a beauty place. I just felt why me. it grows so fast, costs a lot, its just never ending...sometimes I get sad about the chin hair and my scalp hair loss.
And I truly thought I was the only person who thought like this. This is so amazing. I truly thought for the longest time that I had the worst luck in the world because of all of the pcos issues I have been experiencing. Not that I'm glad to know that soo many other women are experiencing the same thing, but glad to know that I'm not alone and I now have a place to go where people understand what im going through. Man I need a hug....lol
