In addition, we had a lot of other stressful events culminating in the most hellish month of my existence, Oct-Nov. 2011. If it could have gone wrong that month, it DID.

You weren't alone in that. 2011 was a sh*tty year for A LOT of people and Oct-Nov 2011 was especially crappy for people like me and DH. Some of the worst things that have ever happened in my life happened in that time period.

So happy to hear how you finally got a girl even in the midst of some serious crap!! Little girls are lots of fun!! Especially in the clothes department!

So interesting...2011 was one of the worst years of my life as well, with the last few months of that year being almost unbearable. Sorry to hear others were suffering at that time as well.

I thought it was interesting too. As 2011 was on its way out, I heard NUMEROUS people say in many different places that 2011 was a really tough year for a lot of people. It made me feel a little better that I wasn't the only one ready to crumble under the stress.

It would be interesting to know if it was a bad line up of the stars or what the deal was, but overall it was just a lousy year. No good memories for me.

Count me in as another person for whom the last part of 2011 was horrific. Between September and November, I lost my beloved kitty, had a m/c and found out my dad had terminal cancer. I was very happy to have that year end.

Just needed some clarification about your use of Vitex to improve your libido -- Vitex is known to actually decrease sex drive; and indeed is also known as chasteberry specifically because it was used by women long ago to "keep them chaste" while their husbands were off at war. Does it increase sex drive in larger amounts? I'd love to know if it is successful with increasing libido in alternative doses. Thanks!

I've read both claims. I know that it was said once upon a time to decrease sex drive (but that was in MEN, my understanding was that it was taken by monks and that's where the name came from, I'm sure it was used in many ways). But i've also read a lot saying that it does something hormonally that improves libido for some women and have had reports from people that it did make them a little more interested in DTD.

It didn't work for me at all. In fact quite the opposite, but at the same time a lot of sh-- was going down and I think sex is so mental for women, that I wouldn't be surprised if it was jsut as much due to the disruptions and unhappiness I was going through at the time.
