Hi,
I'm kind of in a right state at the moment and trying not to panic because I've had some spotting lately here and there and all of a sudden I've gotten really heavy spotting almost just like my period (feels like period leaks hope that's not TMI) but I had my last on the 17th of Oct and I'm not quite sure if it's actually started up again. I usually get hormonal if it's my period and crampy and I haven't felt like quite like that but I have had non-hormonal-y periods before where I just felt fine. My periods are sometimes regular and sometimes not, and I missed the month before last...I was getting nervous about that one cause it took forever to get here. I do spot between my periods sometimes. I'm wondering if to throw in the towel and label this as a period. Maybe I'm just scaring myself up and it really is my period. I'm scared it won't be and it'll last like two days and it'll prove my fears. I'm not feeling any period cramps at the moment but I have had IBS which does happen almost every single time I have my period. My periods are always quite heavy and last about 5-7 days. Oh, and I'm only 21 too and not on the pill. And I have been highly anxious lately and stressed. I almost had a PA the other day for no reason other than I was sitting at the computer and my heart rate was up a little cause I ate annnnd...I am a bit of a hypocondriac.
Anyways I'm imagining the worst as usual. This health anxiety is sooo terrible...if it's not one thing it's the other and this is a particuarly scary 'other'.
EDIT: It's gotten really heavy so it's pretty much my period. On second thought, I did have something like cramps this morning but I thought it was IBS. did feel a cramp twinge yesterday except I was out on a boat fishing so I didn't notice much. And I did read somewhere that if you miss a period the one after the one you just had will be sooner. See how much of a hypocondriac I am?
