Mood: Yearning

I have a problem that I need all you girls out there to help me with.

So I'm on the pill to regulate stuff, and it's great! You know, I usually don't get too bad of cramps, my skin is better, etc etc. EXCEPT... the dark blue pills make me absolutely volatile. The last week before my period, I swear it is like manic depression.

For example, I came home for lunch today after being ecstatic about something we did in bio, and upon finding out there was no chicken in the house (I REALLY wanted chicken fingers) I stood in front of the fridge in shock, and cried for 5 minutes.

Clearly something is not right here.

Other than changing my pill, is there something I should be doing? I heard Vitamin B6 or E is good for that due to some chemical imbalance in your blood during these crazy hormonal fluctuations or something like that. I'm making an appointment with my doctor for next week... but is there anything I can do for the next few days, or if a new pill doesn't work? Because this is beyond pathetic.

In other news... Who watches the Watchmen? I fucking will tomorrow night woop woop!

Im not using the pill, but my week before my period is the worst one too.. except for that it isnt regular, I only realize it was because of my period I was like that the past week

B6 is good to take around the time of your period, but you need to make sure you don't take too much, because I think you can overdose on it.

If you've not been taking the pill for a while, your body's probably still trying to sort itself out. You might find that it'll take a while, but it'll get better.

I wish I could tell you
But I'm not on the pill... Hopefully you can work it out.
I'm similar, haha. Very touchy touchy right before my period.
Dang PMS. Hah.

Gotta finish the book first! Then I shall also watch the watchmen!

~randomly clicking through dA, saw your journal xD ~

Are the dark blue pills Week 4 in the pack? If so, those are the placebo pills, so your hormones wouldn't be as regulated & your body might just be overreacting

But either way, it's probably just major PMS, a lot of people get like that, as much as it sucks

Ask your doctor if it becomes too bothersome

Haha no they're week 3. Good lord... worst PMS ever... I'm going on Saturday to see if I can try any others, because they've definitely made my PMS much worse
