So fed up

8 Replies

Im due on my time of the month in two days, The last few days my anxiety has been through the roof, I keep feeling like an attack is about to happen, could this be down to my period being due?

Im way more emotional then usual, i have felt like crying nearly all day.

Iv had a tight feeling down the side and top of my head.

I’ve just come on today after missing last month even on the pill I’m still irregular which is annoying as it makes me more anxious. I’ve been the same crying over nothing, period pain for the last two days and chest pains today, headache and vibrations on my head. Can notice my heart beating and just generally seem to notice stuff more with my body than before. My time of the month always seems to trigger my anxiety more and give me panic attacks it’s hormones.

Looks like were all on the same cycle cause I've been a mess since last night. Cant sleep. Shaky. And notice every sensation a thousand times worse

We must be! I’m due today but I usually run a few days late. Hope this feeling passes once mother nature makes a show!

I have been getting the same thing just a day before or a few days before but it's been that bad that I can't go to work. Must be a hormone thing.

Definitely. I have found this app called hormone horoscope very helpful. It tells you day by day in your cycle what you should expect from your moods, energy cravings etc. and it does say in the week leading up to your period anxiety is higher and if you have OCD it worsens at this time.

Not what you're looking for?
