It's always nice to know that we are not alone! PMS is such a looney time!

I am so glad to hear this craziness is realted to PCOS. I have uncontrollable fits when I am PMSing. The problem is I can feel my period trying to come on, I get PMS and then it goes away. After that, no period and then I go through the process again as my body tries to regulate through the PCOS. THese fits are outrageous. I get delusional, and then I;m back to normal after a few days. The fits are worse at bedtime. I start thinking that I am not worthy of being alive, and I KNOW THAT IS RIDICULOUS-after the PMS subsides. When this happens all I wan to do is die, but all i end up doing is crying uncontrollably. Please don;t get me wrong, I'm not depressed, and I don;t normally feel this way. Yes, I have told my doc.

When I told my husband that there was a thread about how we feel before our periods he just started laughing hysterically. I am one of those werewolf/demon/satan's wife pms'er. There are times that I too want to slap myself. Its like its slow motion and i am watching how I am reacting (how and to what) and I know its ridiculous but I cannot stop myself. The mean rants just fly out of my mouth. I get so bad that if a friend knows i am nearing my period she wont be around me because i am so mean. It is definetly hormonal. When i was on bcp my periods and pms were almost welcome. I just recently started metformin so i hope that this coming period will not have me screaming and in pain.

I know what you guys mean. WHen i'm hormonal i am awful to be around. My partner doesnt know what to do with me, she said the other day after i'd been in such a mood that she didnt know if i wanted her to be near me or not. Which is completely opposite cos i always love being around her. I appreciate her so much especially when i've been in a psychotic manic depressive episode. Then again at least her being a woman means she's a bit understanding of hormones!

I used to think I was so crazy - it is bad enough to have PMS... but when you dont even have a period... that is madness for sure! I used to do this all the time, every month that I didnt have a period. I actually think the PMS before the periods I didnt have were a little worse than when I actually had a period.

It makes me feel better that others have this, too, but also sad for us all. I hope we can all find something that makes this go away. Even now that I am on lots of vitamins (to the point that my hubby and kids tease me about them) and the Metformin helps me, I still am not myself the week before my period.
