This Ones For the Ladies!

Hi girls

i have noticed that in the run up to my period I get severly anxious. I have anxiety all the time but it gets so intense about two weeks before the time of the month, does anyone else get this?

I thought it may have been due to coming off the pill but that was over 9 months ago. I know more anxiety is normal up to your period but I get it so bad I could curl up in my bed and just hide.

Would be interested to hear from you

Hi deb,

i get more more anxious 2 weeks b4 periods. I become more emotional, more easy to cry, small things annoy me. And I worry more about my health and other issues.

This month b4 periods I was so anxious (even call it depressed) jus felt sad scared and unwell. Jus couldnt stop worrying, which led to me getting a tight throat, which im told is globus hystericus.

Has any1 had globus hystericus? If yes, what were ur symptoms like?

The joys of being a woman!

Thanks for your replies at least I know i`m not alone, I think my family were starting to wonder what was wrong with me! Its just horrible to have this and constant anxiety as well.

Anyway I was thinking about going back on the pill but i`m not sure if this is a good idea, my doctor doesn`t even seem to care!

Thanks everyone
