hey swifty3 you're definitely not the only one. I feel like a total bitch on wheels when I'm getting my period. I suffer so much, in fact right now I have been suffering so many symptoms and my period hasn't even started! And I hate everyone and everything right now--even my two babies(my cats) are getting on my last nerve right now.
You're not alone! Good luck to us both, hon! Oh, yeah, welcome to this site!

I am pms'ing at the moment, I do consciously try to keep a lid on it, especially with my children. But I do find myself getting very quickly irritated, I'm normally a patient, calm person.
I could really lose it when i am like this, but I find the best thing to do is get out of everyones way because if they piss me off I explode.
My OH tries to be sweet to me when I am like this, but he has found it easier to stay out of my way for a couple of days of the month.

Yesterday was Sunday and I just wanted to "dressup and look 'pretty.'"

My hair TOTALLY did not want to cooperate and I would usually jsut put it in a ponytail, but yesterday I wanted to just throw that 30 dollar hair drier. Instead, I pick-up the brush, used it and then threw it. HARD. Damn it did not break but my goodness, what's the use of those emotions?

Is part of it that I just did not have the mirroring of emotions, when I was young? So that I find these strong emotions abnormal? Is there someone here who had some good mirroring for negative ro so called 'bad' emotions?

Oh, so last night I got my period. So that is what the emotions were from, but please post if you have had positive mirroring of emotions.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
