PMS?

[becca1111]

Good morning everyone!

I was wondering is PMS affected any of you in terms of energy. I've been feeling very anxious and my vibe just feels low. I appreciate any insight and tips on raising your vibrations!

Thank you!

With love~

Hey becca, so I have PMDD premenstrual dysphoris disorder so before I get my menstrual I feel very depressed for days, I cry constantly sometimes for no reason, I am exhausted a lot and I craze lots of salt and sweets after I get my menstrual I feel a lot better. You may want to speak to your gyno and get your hormones checked to make sure you don't have an in-balance if you do they will give you some form of hormone which will help you feel better.

My anxiety is always worse the week before and I sleep so much more. Like some days I need 10 hours of sleep and I'm still exhausted. I think it affects a lot.

Thank you both!! Do you have any tips on how to deal with that during that period?

No lol I need tips because its a roller coaster for me.

Yes! My period is supposed to come this week so I’m dealing with this right now lol. My mood was great UNTIL today. Now I’m having feelings where I want to be single and dump my POI even though things are great and nothing is wrong. I don’t have super bad PMS but my energy does drop and I’m out of it. To get myself “back” up I do yoga or kickboxing. And if I’m feeling sad then I usually force myself to watch a sad movie. Watching the sad movie has forced me to cry and has (funny enough) gotten rid of a ton of anxiety for me

I honestly just go see my therapist and also keep myself busy and do things that  i like because I tend to over think more and I am more emotional during that time.

Are you ladies taking evening primrose oil?  I just added it in for the last 3 cycles and they have been so much better, in terms of mood and anxiety,  I still get painful long problematic periods but at least my spirits are good!
