I do have endometriosis but i dont think that has anything to do with this. Between 7-10 days before my period, I feel so depressed to the point where I feel like a completley different person! I don't want to go anywhere, go to work, talk to anyone, I sometimes cry for no reason and I also get very negative and irritable. I take 75mgs of effexor for anxiety (which runs in my family; my mom and my sister both take the same medication for the same reason) so you would think that the meds would help my PMS but it doesn't seem to be. I can't imagine what I would be like w/out the effexor - now that would be scary. My PMS is so bad that it effects my daily life, my family, my work and my relationships with others. What can I do? I really HATE IT more than anything. Having endometriosis pain is bad enough - adding the mental on top of it is just awful. Somedays I just want to throw in the towel, run off and hide. Please help!
