You will probably look back on all this and laugh. It is due to the hormones. My mom had thyroid imbalance issues and had to have a hysterectomy all in a short time frame. We all (including her) talk about those times with laughter. We love her, so we don't resent any of her behavior during that time because we know that it she didn't do them on purpose. She's always been a nutter anyway.
There is no reason to be ashamed, but you should get help. I don't have good advice on what route is best (hormones vs meds vs herbs vs whatever) but it would be best to have a close relationship with your woman's health doctor I think.
