Keep in mind, copperpenny, that the radical hormone changes can affect our emotions. Some of us suffer more from it than others. You just had RAI, so you are coming off the high hill of the hormonal roller coaster. But it DOES get better. I know you were released from counseling, but it sounds like the counselors didn’t have a clue about Graves, and the treatments, etc. Since you are well aware of how you feel AND know about Graves’ issues, perhaps you should plop yourself back on their doorstep both to get some more help AND to help educate the uninformed <grin>. Remind them of how they felt at puberty if their empathy quotients are in the minus range.
I really hope you are feeling better soon,
