Might it have anything to do with your menstrual cycle?

I had the worst PMS symptoms ever when I was in my 20s and 30s, of course now I realize that was probably related to my then-undiagnosed BP, because my moods cycled along with my periods. I was hell on wheels for the week or 10 days prior to Shark Week for years.....my poor family could do nothing but stay out of my way when I was like that. (I've since apologized---NOBODY deserves to be driven out of their own house when Mamma ain't happy.)

Anyway, just thought I'd throw that out there. Your mileage may vary.
