Is it your hormons ripping your minds apart month after month?

It must be hell going from one end of the spectrum to the other month after month, week after week, day after day and in some cases minute after minute.

I have seen a woman go from bounceing off the walls happy to mad as hell all on her own in a matter of less than a minute

Part of it is hormons and part of it is learned behavoir.

Part of it is the inabliity to communicate effectivly.

We assume that men read our mind. We say yes and expect our man to KNOW we mean yes. We think men will rescue us and when they don't we fall apart. We let our minds race and we jump from one subject to another then comoplain when no one understands us. (the greatest things I learned from a past bf was that I needed to choose one subject and talk slow, and then he can communicate with me, and it works!)

As women we want to have more attention than most men know how to give. We are treated like little princesses then we get out on our own and wonder where daddy is. We over extend ourselves in work and home and then wonder why we fall apart emotionally, phyically. We have unrealistic expectations for ourself and those around us. We have forgotten how to smell the roses. I personally early on learned to give and give until I was angry and bitter and resentful (I unlearned that about 30 years ago) I learned that to take care of those I love I needed to take care of myself and that doesn't mean to be selfish. There are some women who EXPECT to be taken care of or that they are intitled to things not so important in the scheem of life.

When I mean "we" I am not pointing a finger, I am just talking generally.

Also....here is maybe one simple answer...We are like this becuase you guys let us be like that.

I don't know who you know as far as women go, but that's not how women are.

I know every bit as many men who have major drama and conflict in their lives.

Maybe - assuming what you think some women in your life are like is accurate - some women are pretty much miserable with what is going on in this life or with how they're treated, but they try to make the most of it by being cheerful and happy if at all possible. Sometimes, though, people who try to be cheerful and put up a "front" just get sick of it once in a while (or else have something else happen on top of everything else), and they just can't keep up the cheerfulness any longer.

For the record, most women don't have some hormonal thing that keeps them in "upheaval" from one day to the next. Most women may have a mild case of feeling tired and a little down for a day or two a month (if it happens at all) or they may having nothing more than a craving for salt for a few days a month - and generally, that's about it for most women's hormonal changes. Women who have more dramatic problems with that particular thing probably have them because they're already having problems, and this time just exaggerates things

Having made the above clarifications, in answer to your question: Most women don't. You are under an incorrect impression about most women.

Well perhaps that woman who went from happy to mad as hell didn't actually get there on her own. Perhaps it had to do with some frustration that didn't have to come about if she was listened to. Or depending on who you're dealing with (and if you're actually telling the truth about the time frame), she may be bi-polar or have a chemical embalance. Something that doesn't just effect women.

I'm sorry that you feel that all women have MAJOR drama, sweetie, but it may have to do with the fact that you don't understand women or else you would not have placed us in the same category. And though some people feel it's difficult to understand us, the key to doing so is communication. Hormones do play a roll in our lives from time to time, but believe it or not, something or someone triggers it. So that's where self-evaluation comes in. We don't all want to be worshiped and we don't all want people to walk on egg shells around us, but if there is no communication or an inch of consideration from those around us, then a woman's bottled emotions have to explode sometime.

hormones are part of it -- the other part of it is men- most are just there to annoy and aggravate, a few are actually sympathetic and nice. Then there are women who act like they are your friends and then they stab you in the back, this over a life time plus hormones is hell beyond any hell women dish out by being moody

You probably met someone who is an exception, not all females are like that. Everyone feels a different range of emotions but the stereotype of women being happy sad and angry within 5 minutes is completely false. Its obviously a image created by some man who made it all up for tv or something.

so because of your experience all women are like this?

try again bud!


it sounds like bipolar disorder.. instead of being a tampon head why not get her to a doctor and have this checked out. it's correctable with medication.

it's not hell for me.. my woman is perfect... i spend my days hacking up lungcheese because she's a riot! a sense of humor isn't that rare and a female who's a hoot, fun to be with and great natured, level headed is not rare.

so don't judge one instance or rare instances and make it into a full blown institution.

if you love her... (i guess that's the question) take her to a doctor.. bipolarism is a treatable condition.

or it could be a chemical imbalance.. or pms. which all are curable through the process of medications.

anything ever happen to her.. or she die.. well it's time to put on my combat uniform and arm myself to the hair folicles and let her rip! i'd be on the 11 'o clock news! :D

(i'm just fooling.. it's a joke... calm down.. )

i'd just wear a shirt saying "let god sort them out, whatever's left over i'll fire up the bbq".

It's called hormones. Can't help it, we have them, it is our make up. Some have more mood swings than others. Depends upon the levels of hormones from day to day, week to week, just as you mentioned. It isn't easy for us!

I don't know, my husband says I seems to always be the same unless a certain situation makes me angry, but that's not very often.

For the others it could be a # of things, maybe they are stressed @ work, or @ home, maybe their husbands
don't treat them well, maybe they don't feel loved.

I just happen to be blessed w/ a family that
is kind to me & to eachother as well.

take care

Depends on her age and circumstances.Are you the one causing her to be this way?If so I'd ask her what's wrong and why.That's if you care for her.
Other wise she could be bipolar.Who really know's?I'm not a doctor!
