Hi there,
I'm sorry I don't have any advice for you, but I wanted to say you are not alone. I also suffer from terrible anxiety and panic which is worse before my period. It is definately PMT in my case! I try to organise anything stressful during the first 2 weeks of my cycle, so that I don't have so much to do when I'm feeling bad, but I've never really found anything that has helped to be honest.

You are not alone – hormones have a lot to answer for and when I had fertility treatment my anxiety went into orbit. I do find that acupuncture helps. Also rationalising that it is just hormones and nothing more sinister does help a bit.
