I get anxiety once a month around my menstrual cycle and depression usually follows for just a few days. I am in my 40's now so I guess that goes with the territory because I will go through the change soon. I plan to see a holistic doctor to get my salava tested to find out where the irabalance is. Like today I feel I can't sit still and I am not relaxed. Ever since I woke up this morning I have been anxiety ridden. I feel like my kiRAB are growing up so fast and I will be left all alone. My husband works constantly and I am a housewife. When he comes home he says about two worRAB to me. I homeschool my kiRAB. I am really busy but I go through this once a month because of the dip of hormones. I hate antidepressants I prefer holistic like meditation, exercise, and acupuncture. I don't know why I feel so insecure around this time. Can anyone relate?:dizzy:
 
I have the same thing but mine has gotten worse because of abuse from my ex, my recent devastating divorce and shared custody of my two kiRAB, and some other trauma.

I have the anxiety/depression/ptsd all month long every day but it is definitely worse when that time comes about 1-2 weeks before and during and a week after.

maybe you have pmdd too?
 
I know I do...............severly...........do you all take anything ? I am also in my 40's and due to job loss my anxiety has gone sky high............I do have PMDD............

What works for you?
 
no i dont take anything

just started effexor for all my other issues

all of my mental health issues have all blended into a huge blob of something so they are hardly distinguishable
 
I hate it when it is like a week before your menstrual cycle and you cry like I will cry about the stupid things "My kiRAB are growing up too fast" - I can't do anything about it but I still cry about stuff like that. Morning is my worst for the anxiety.

I take primrose oil right to level out my hormones.
