Yeah I hear you. I try to warn everyone when I start to loose it. That way they leave me alone which is a good thing for them and me.

monthly period really affects my life.. with those mood swings and headaches.i read an article before that when you are reaching your monthly period you should avoid eating foods that contains acid.. well seems its true coz am not suffering from dysmenorrhea though mood swing is still there...

I'm EXTREMELY sensitive around that time of the month. Any little thing can spark a tantrum or a sobbing fit. It's really horrible, but I don't think it can be helped lol. It's worse for those loved ones around us anyway :P

I am horrendous while PMSing, but for me it lasts longer, into my period as well. I cry, get angry, bloat, and just feel miserable in general. My friends are all used to me and just tolerate it, (since the girls go through it too) but it confuses and kind of scares my boyfriend.
