I did. I see it as part of my physical reality like any other. There is a pretty strong association between PMS and increased anxiety for me, also when I was newly sober it was usually the week before my period when I struggled with cravings the most. Sometimes my T made overly complicated (and wrong) interpretations about what might have been causing my challenging emotional states and it helped me to think/say it is just PMS rather than trying to identify a mysterious cause that did not exist.
