I used to have very regular periods. Every 28-29 days. I kept track on the calendar, and the week before it was due, I would avow not to act on desires to kill anyone(my husband mostly) should the impulse occur. Just knowing it was THAT week helped a lot with the anxiety and paranoia that I sometimes got. Now I am in a spot as it appears I am pre-menopausal or perimenopausal and my cycles lately have been 5 -6 weeks. I do get the paranoia and anxiety 2-5 days before now but it's unpredictable--and this has been difficult to handle. Plus my periods are a lot heavier and the exhaustion has really increased. I am sure I will continue to rely on chocolate but I have to think it's time to start looking into herbal remedies described above.
