Does anyone else go completely manic a week before their period all the way until sometimes the period actually ends? I am so bad. It’s been this way for about 6 months! I’m emotional, crying… I can’t disclose why but my boyfriend isn’t home right now and when we talk on the phone I’m so insecure about everything. And it gets so bad. It’s not yet, but I feel like eventually it will take a toll on my relationship, I know sometimes it’s annoying for him to have to deal with it every month. I just wanna get it under control but I wouldn’t even know where to start.

Since I have been off birth control I noticed I can get extra mad over nothing about a week ahead of my period. I’ve been tracking it and trying to be more aware so I can change it! Try working out or eating extra healthy during that time to encourage better mental health! It helps me!
My MIL
did for many years . Two weeks out of each month . She was diagnosed with severe PMS , put on anti depressants and other meds . When she was about 50 , it was just fine . She no longer had those issues ( most likely when she no longer had periods ) . She couldn’t help this and yes , my FIL adored her and they remained married until
They both passed away
No lie, my husbands desexed female dog does before my period… It’s how I know that I’m about to get mine lmao.
I’m guessing your boyfriend has been gone for about 6 months possibly… It could be stress related
Yep me big time…My depression is at an all time high the week before im due. It’s horrible. I get myself into a really dark place.
Get your multi vitamins they’ll balance your hormones and eat more green vegetables helps me tremendously. Also be mindful and take control and acknowledge your hormones making you cray every time you feel it. My hormones going crazy right now etc
Yes girl I swear I go nuts
Yes I do. I hate it. I have pmdd. Heck I don’t even wanna be near myself when it’s happening. And mine is 10x worse cause I already have mental illnesses so all of those combined then add the pmdd on top of it man I just want to run away from my own body
Manic is usually a bipolar term. Do you even know what that means?

I have PMDD. My emotions were completely out of control, my temper was awful, would switch from angry to happy to crying in minutes. I spoke to my doc and was diagnosed with PMDD, that was 5 years ago. I’m on a medication now and it’s done wonders for me.
