I am so glad someone brought this up, over the last few months I have turned into a monster with PMS. I know its hormones and not the 'normal' mood fluctuation because it gets worse the night before the bleeding starts, and once it does I am absolutely fine again.

I have extreme suicidal and self harm thoughts, sometimes acting on them, I am very agitated and the anxiety levels rise (although I have been able to keep this under control). I take out my frustration and anger on people that are closest to me and I find I get far more picky and judgmental. My mood doesnt always feel super low, but I do feel super pissed off. I get a lot of physical symptoms too but the mental ones are far more dangerous for me. It is driving me up the wall!

I have been researching and have found a few things that are supposed to help but I am unsure of interactions with psyc meds. Working out and avoiding sugar are things I have tried but I think I need something more.

What I have found that is supposed to help -
Calcium, Vitamin E, Magnesium, B-6, Chasteberry (I use this for moody mares and it works a treat so I hope it would help humans too), Evening primrose oil, fishoil, flaxseed oil, Black cohosh and valerian (which also works for my horses).

Next time I see my pdoc I am going to ask about interactions or what I could do to get this undercontrol. Its annoying to be doing so well then once a month lose the plot. Its starting to wear thin and my boyfriend is getting tired of it. I have been planning on getting the mirena but it is so hard to organise. Maybe now my boyfriend will help me with that since it got so bad last week.
