Crazier feeling on and around period time???

Hi Everyone

Do you like feel crazier(sorry not sure if this is spelt correctly ) on or around, during your period????? What do you do to combat this, or do you just put up with it????.

Cheers. XX

Hey,
I always find exercising helps. It puts your mind somewhere else, and wears you out so you dont have so much energy to be crazy!!

Oh yes. In fact, leading up to my current feelings of depression and sadness, I had a (rare) period. My periods are very irregular but I sort of knew one was coming due to some familiar symptoms but I didn't put two-and-two together with my mood. I'm sure my face changed I was so down. And I couldn't think straight or concentrate for about a week. Once my period started I got all sorts of additional tummy troubles (blah) but usually... once my period starts I think ohhhh, that's why!!! And then I start to feel better and much happier and more focused. Except this time I didn't - and that's when I pretty much realised that it was depression and not just PMT. (Not that I'm trivialising PMT - it's orrible).
