I hate being a woman

Post Reply New Topic

Being a woman sucks. There. I said it. Every month, I have to put up with hormones and PMS that seem to make my meltdowns a lot worse. I hate having meltdowns, because every time I do, I end up either frightening someone, making them cry, or both, and worst of all, it is affecting my marriage, because my husband is doing everything he can to help, but it's hard, because my emotions keep getting in the way of everything. My birth control and Zoloft are barely helping, but then again, I only started these meds recently.

Sometimes, I wish I was male. They do not have to go through the monthly PMS and periods like we do, and they don't have the extra hormones. Plus, most of the time, they have a carefree attitude and don't seem to be scared of anything.

I apologize for the rant, but that is how I feel at the moment.

If you were not a woman, you probably wouldn't have come up with that great line which is your signature.

I can understand, somewhat, how you feel as to hormones.

Hang in there. I'm sure your husband likes you better as a woman

I know he does. It's just that when I get anxious or upset, it can be difficult for him because I have a hard time opening up.

LOL...as long as you don't belt him one for no reason, then I think you're okay.

It must be frustrating for the both of you.

Consider yourself lucky for being a happily married female aspie.

Just because I am "happily married", it doesn't always mean I am always a happy person. Sometimes, I fell like a failure of a wife because of these meltdowns that I find hard to communicate through. You are single; you don't have to worry about that.

I hate being a woman too at this point in my life. I used to feel like that when I was younger but that went away but now the feeling has come back. I just feel like my husband gets the better end of the stick in life and no one questions his opinions or actions the way women are such as at work. At home, his standards of cleanliness differs from mine so I end up doing more housework to keep things to my standard. My son wants Mummy all the time and I get no time to myself. My husband can sit down and chill without my son bothering him for anything unless I am really busy or napping or something and don't get me started on my periods which take over my life. I have always had heavy periods and have to plan my life around them. There is so much more I can complain about. I don't necessarily feel like I am going to start dressing like a boy today or act like a boy because that would not turn me into a man but I really hate being a woman.

I got angry at my husband again for no reason. This is why I hate being female. It f***ing sucks, okay? I don't even deserve to be married. I deserve to shot in the head, unless someone is willing to remove my reproductive system BECAUSE I AM F***ING SICK OF HAVING THESE F***ING HORMONAL MELTDOWNS FOR NO REASON WHATSOEVER!! !

I believe there are meds and treatments for your condition. Have you spoken to your GP or GYN about these issues?

My doctor mentioned today that the Zoloft is supposed to double as a PMS med, but so far, it hasn't worked much yet. I was also reluctant to double my Klonopin dose, because I am supposed to take it for anxiety, and I don't want it to double as an antiseizure med as well (I only had one seizure 13 years ago).

I hope you feel better tomorrow.

I hope you feel like purring instead of feeling like you're erring.

Obviously, I'm good at pushing everyone's buttons, including my husband. I've upset him so much tonight, he took his anger out on his mom. And The Worst Wife of the Year award goes to...B*tchsC**t.

There are pros to being a woman.

I used to hate being a female, but now I love it. I love the clothing. I also love how we are not forced to be more "macho and alpha" like most males are. Funny enough, I do not mind my period. I actually like it.

You just have to see the joys of being a woman.

I am not sure I am suppose to post in this forum as I am male but I will say that being male isn't a bed of roses.

Sounds like you could benefit from therapy. Do you have any hobbies? Be thankful that you are happily married.

Having a much better day today.

I do have a few hobbies that include playing video games, drawing, reading, and exercising, but Internet has distracted me lately.

I have a severe anxiety disorder, and I've been trying to get help for that for the past year, which is why I am on Zoloft and Klonopin. Therapy hasn't really crossed my mind, and I really don't want to go to marriage counseling, because I love my husband too much, and I don't want him to leave me, despite the fact that he also has AS. Believe me, I really feel bad for every single meltdown that I have, I wish I could take them all back.
