HappilyHopeful

My anxiety fluctuates throughout my cycle. Typically, it is very high the week before AF. I freak out about everything. I think BF is cheating on me, I think everyone is out to get me. I imagine the most horrible scenarios, I can't sleep, I'm out of control with eating. It's really bad. Then, I get my period and I feel fine. The rest of my cycle, it's pretty mild. I'll have an anxiety attack once in a while, but for the most part its the worse while I'm PMSing. I want to ask my dr about some kind of anti-anxiety medication because it is truly unbearable when I have it. Is anyone taking anything for anxiety?

I took Paxil for my anxiety and it really helped. I don't take it anymore, but most of the time my anxiety is tolerable without it. I have learned how to deal with my anxiety and can generally talk myself out of my anxiety attacks. I also had some Klonopin that I took when my anxiety was really bad. I didn't take the Klonopin all the time, but I would take it when I had a bad attack. Good luck and I hope you find something that works for you.
