Ever seen those commercials advertising an extreme PMS condition? I for sure know I suffer from some extreme PMS....not the cramps, etc. I mean knock down hormones that come with a full order of mood swings and depression. I have literally felt hopeless so many times when my TOM is present. I have been a grouch that could one up Oscar the Grouch. I have wanted to push everyone away and just stay in my room and sleep.
I have talked to the doctor who prescribes me medicine for my depression. She suggested a natural supplement BUT you take 6 pills a day for the 10 days BEFORE your period and 3 days INTO your period. I cannot take that many pills for 13 days out of each month. The pills are huge and I have enough trouble always remember to take my daily medicines in the morning. I know I should do whatever it takes but I always think I am fine until the TOM makes it round again. I have to find an easier solution that all those pills.
I just heard a crash from my daughter's room so am going to cut this short!
I hope that crash wasn't anything serious.
ReplyDeleteI too have severe feelings of hopelessness and anxiety when TOM comes to town. Not every month, thank God, but often. It helps to remind myself that I won't always feel that way.
Is your daughter okay?
ReplyDeleteTry PrimaRose from the local drug store. It seriously helps with the hormones. Hope you feel better sweetie.
