**Poll: Your craziest PMS moments**
So, I have just begun to feel the wrath of this month's fury which has included: being snippy, bit$%, easily aggravated, anxious, not to mention the cravings for salt and sweet which I'm trying to stave off with fruits!?
The one thing I miss when on the pill was the hormonal control of all these demons, but without it, I feel like I'm on a roller coaster ride of emotions which won't end until the period arrives! Ugh!
Yesterday, I got home from work and had a craving for potato salad to go with dinner, so I jump in the car, fully expecting to lose my parking spot. So, in desperation and fury, I parked in front of a neighbor's partially blocking their driveway because they rarely park there. ?(I know, still shouldn't have)! But, I hated having to park me and DH's car on the highway a couple blocks from from our house because I was simply lazy and PMS driven. So, DH wasn't happy when he saw the note on our windshield from our neighbor asking to move it! I had every intention of moving it before leaving for work, but DH got the note first.
I told him: "Look I have PMS and I was desperate!" Enough said! Funny because DH always knows "that time." I just might have to break down and take Midol.
Does anyone else have raving PMS moments to share?! ?
Re: **Poll: Your craziest PMS moments**
Well, I've just gone off the pill last month, and since I've been on it since I was 15, I don't really remember what my pms is like! I've had one cycle off the pill so far, but that was fairly uneventful, which I attribute to it being the first cycle off bcps. I will let you know if I become a raging *** this month! (which is what I remember happening to me in my pre-bcp days).
I'm so sorry to hear you had such a roller coaster day!
I feel like i've been fighting off PMS and some serious cranky emotions the past couple days. I keep finding myself taking 'time outs' to breath and not let things get to me. I feel like I could break out yelling or crying.
I've been of bc for just under 2 years now - some months its awful, others I barely have any emotional mood swings.
here's hoping everyone has a better end of the week! I think a glass of wine (or 2) is in order. hee hee
