Anxiety peaks certain weeks ?

[TJSMITH]

Anyone relate to this on the whole doing a lot better but noticed a pattern of increase in anxiety a certain time of month.
Im fine three weeks of month, on the pill do have a weeks break then week after that boom the feeling of sadness, dread and fear return again and lasts a week or so.

Does anyone else get this? I can't snap out of it I just gave to ride it out but not nice.

Hi
why don't you get your hormones check out with a blood test? Don't know how old you are,but it can happen early no harm in asking

I notice I'm more anxious and more easily upset in the few days before my period starts. I'm not on any kind of contraceptive pill. I just assume it's PMS.

I'm 38 and had a blood test but as on pill could give false results.
My mum was put on hrt mid thirties it's not normal pmt it's a feeling of fear and dread but week after period not before.
I'm keeping a log of it and will ask for another test as took them two years to
Confirm my mums case.

Thanks for replys x
