Thank you

This is all really interesting.  I want to read the welfare book and the hormone book.  I agree that one of the most confusing things is to feel these emotions/impulses/etc. and not really know if they are "real" or if they are hormone-driven and if they will pass, or if they are more serious, or if you should be worried, or if you should be doing something, or if you should be trying to ignore it all----or what.  Very baffling, and scary sometimes.  Andrea, that is really scary about the molar(?) pregnancy.  It is helpful for me to hear of other people's experiences, if only so I have some frame of reference for what kinds of things can be caused by hormones and how other people have handled it.
Anyway . . . thanks for all your thoughts.
