I am 50 years old.

About 3 yrs ago... I had noticed that for the last few years, my emotions and temper went haywire in the middle of my menstrual cycle. It seemed to get progressively worse. EVERYTHING got "under my skin". I would try to keep to myself as much as possible until it passed. It finally got to the point that even I didn't want to spend time with myself. I made an appointment with my gynecologist & he prescribed a low dose of Prozac. I was feeling better, but not quite "there" yet. I followed up with him in 6 months as Instructed. When I told him that I felt like the dosage needed to be adjusted, he referred me to a psychiatrist.
