PMS Symptoms

[Owlie]

I really don't have any advice, but in the last couple years, I've noticed my PMS symptoms--both physical and emotional--have gotten worse. The physical I can deal with provided I have the appropriate painkiller. The emotional...oof. Any little thing can provoke me (usually my parents and sister), and it'll turn into a huge fight followed by a crying jag. (I'm normally pretty long-fused and certainly not a crier.) There's a couple of hours worth of me feeling depressed and worthless.

I know in my case the depressed bit is often biochemical in origin and gets better if I get some food in me. Long walks help too. Any new stress in your life? I ask because I'm starting to think that it may have something to do with this. This crazy stuff started senior year of college and has continued through this prolonged transition period I'm going through right now in terms of the real world/grad school and the uncertainty around that.

Sorry, I have nothing else, but certainly sympathize.
