I dont get depressed at all, but every month or so I feel as if everything is comming down on me. I feel ugly and just one little thing can set me off to cry. I dont feel like killing myself or any of that. I have a great life and have all that I need but every month or so I get like im not worthy to have this life. Its kind of the only way I can explain it. Im bloated and feel ishy. I think it happens every month a week before my period. Does anyone eles feel this way. I dont even want to be nice to the pt's at work i feel sooo bad. Does any body eles feel this way?????

i get the same way just before my period. I get depressed and very moody. I feel bad for people around me! Its just the hormones, and theres not much we can do about it. I have heard that there are things that doctors can give you if you get really depressed and stuff during your period, but i have never tried them.

Yesssssssssss..... When I "forget" my exercise routine and eat too much processed foods. I WILL be so ugly to myself for a small period of time before my period. I won't want to shower or wear make up, thinking... "what will THAT change?" I feel fat and feel like everyone else sees it too. I don't want to go out, and occasionally find myself taking it out on the kids or the man. Sometimes it even feels like purposefull laziness or laxidazical melancholly.... or contented depression. I feel like a walking contradiction in every way.... during that time. Makes one wonder how a female president would make decisions during that time of the month.... but then again.... we turned out just fine. Yeah, I don't want to call my friends or be nice to anyone either. Sometimes I do it just to shift out of that feeling though.

Sounds like PMS to me. I've battled depression for years, but I did notice that it always got worse about a week before my period. Even now, I double the dose of my antidepressants in the week before my period.
If it starts to affect your personal and professional life, though, you might want to see a doctor about it.

My P.M.S. hits a week before my period also, don't wig out, it's normal.....ask your doctor about things that you can take to help with the symptoms, natural herbs do wonders also! Good Luck :) I just smoke pot, but I have a perscription for it....it's not for everyone, but you can get medical marijuana for P.M.S. and severe cramps.

ok I'm a guy, and what your describing is very common, but... can't you conciously realize that it is that point in your cycle that your hormones make you feel like that, and make a point to not let it affect your actions so much? Or is there just no controlling it?

I think its pms. My mom and girl friends have told me about it. It is horrible they say. Some people get angry, others become very sensible and so on.
GL handling it!
