For all the ladies here...is it just me or does your emotional dysregulation get sooooo much worse right before your period? I'm on birth control pills, so I'm surprised that it still happens to me, since my hormone levels should be stable. Sometimes I feel like I'm spiralling out of control, but have to reel myself back in with the knowledge it is just that time of the month.

I just don't understand how it can be so bad on the pill. For me, my body doesn't even know it's time until 3 'fake' pills later. I hope it doesn't affect your Christmas . I started a new pack, skipping my fake pills, so I wouldnt have to deal with it over the holidays.

I take them 3 packages in a row, then off for a week. I don't take any fake pills, never have. At least I am not as *****y as I was when going through fertility treatments, that was like PMS X 10. It won't wreck my Christmas but I will have to be aware and not be witchy.

I don't think I saw where you mentioned crying, lol.

I find myself weepy at everything these days, commercials, stories people tell.... I don't think it is all PMS as it has been going on for a couple of weeks.

For me the PMS definitely feeds the BPD quite healthily. More so that I'm older ~ to the point that I thought that's what it was the 'pre' symptoms as some do have it more severely than others. But I accept it for now as a combination and hope that after this womanly stage of my life ceases . . . at least one of the 'twins' will take a hike.

Definitely much, much worse, and the bad thing for me is I often don't realize it at the time and then look back with a " no wonder". And God forbid anything emotionally challenging happen at that time. I'll get paranoid and delusional in top of it. Great fun.

I feel all these things at the same time, I cant rest, I cant sleep, my brain will not shut down-its doing multiple file searches while watching tv and chatting here and doing a crossword search in my head....and this is down time....the back pain is what is bothering me the most, I think...cant move so I haven't decorated the house, inside or out, shopped, have to cook for about 12 people....this is something I cannot do, simple because I cant move. I am dependent on others to take care of me...and tho they say they love me...they abandon me for hours and haven't lifted a finger yet to decorate....
If I had something for the pain...it would be tolerable, but because of paperwork I lost my appt. I had waited 3 weeks to see this spine surgeon. So now they set my apt for January 9th!!!! I am a basket case right now...don't know how I will make it through the holidays... I just want to run away and hide...I do this...I will leave...rent a room...whenever for a few days or up to a week sometimes...no one knows where I am and they really don't question this behavior...do they really not care??? Am I that abandoned? Does nobody want to be around me>> oh yeah...time for pms meds......
