I am not doing well today. I got up as usual, showered, ate, and then just CRASHED......no other alternative but to CRASH back in bed, but couldn't sleep. When I'm feeling this bad, can't do anything--can't concentrate on T.V., of course can't read. It's like an emotional and physical crash.... Had to take( 2) .5 Clonopin, then I could sleep. Sometimes I wonder if it's anxiety, just manifested in another way--I mean I know it's hormonal(I'm pre-menstrual) but the klonopin really helps me--plus the sleep. I used to have these crashes all the time--usually the first few days of my period. Sometimes I would sleep off and on all day....anyway, am better now after long nap, but am taking it easy. Can't spend the time I'd like to here at DS, know I don't have the energy. Miss all my DS friends and hope you all are doing well and wish you all a good weekend....love to everyone!

Yuck! What an awful experience. My anxiety gets me up and going instead of down and out -- but it makes me feel so bad I could see how it could make someone crash instead. Usually I crash after a week or so of it, unless I do what you did, which is to take some klonipin to knock the edge off. I hope you are feeling better soon.
I am sorry about your pms, it totally sucks and I have the same problems. I know how you feel. Try to remember that it will disapear after your period starts and you will get back to the better side of you, your \"better half\". I am two people, one person with pmdd, and then a better person after my period. It is hard on me and my family.But I have to try to remember and you should too that we will get through it and feel better. It will go away.
Hey Sis, I guess we are on the same schedule because I am having to take some Klonopin during the day too and I usually don\'t have to do that. Unfortunately it doesn\'t always stop when I start. Maybe for a few days but I start to feel it again at the end of my period. I am so sorry you\'ve had such a bad day!! Wish I could be there with you and I\'d make you some hot peppermint tea or something--probably chocolate would be better. Have you ever had that special dark choc with extra Cacao that is suppossed to be good for you? I always knew choc. was good for you!!! Take care and hope you sleep good tonight. Love you lots my sister
Good to hear from you, I\'m just gettin in from the Great Banquet for the
weekend. How are you feeling now, I hope much better. If you can get a
hotwater bottle, place it on you stomach, not to hot now just a little
warm that will stimulate you more. Hope you feel better. We lifted you
up in much prayer. Also place the hotwater bottle at you lower back area
you should get some relief. If you don\'t have a hotwater bottle you can
use a liter bottle it will do the same for you. Love you much, wrap up
in a warm blanket and get relaxed. Blessings to you.
I haven\'t gotten my period for 4 months! :-(
my thoughts and prayers are with you...sorry you are feeling so bad...hope today will be better for you, dear friend! i love you!
