I have PMS at least this bad, yes. I've always referred to it as suicidal-psychotic-PMS. Often, there is a great deal of rage, as well. And impulsive behavior... I get manic (not bipolar, but you wouldn't know it if you encountered me during that lovely week).

I can't tolerate hormones or antidepressants, so I gave up on those years ago. Someone told me that soy isoflavons are tremendously helpful. I've not tried. I've started taking a mood stabilizer and am hoping for the best.
