Women, how do you cope when you're going through PMS?!


Question: I'm rather irritable today and it doesn't help that I'm at work. I always seems to get that way the day before my monthly unwelcome house guest comes to visit. So how do you deal?

PS: I'm not a huge chocolate fan. *waits for multiple gasps*

AH!

lol, kidding.

I find it best to warn people that you aren't feeling well, and let it out. I'm usually sad, so I just cry a lot, boo hoo, and when I'm feeling better, i thank those who tolerated me. ^_^

Since you are irritable, apologize in advance, take some deep breaths, and think twice before you choose your words or actions. Then try to smile and think "Just because I am a woman, doesn't mean that I have to suffer for it. I amn bigger than my hormones". But don't beat yourself up, it's only natural to be irritable at work. lol

EDIT:
One day? I'm a boo fricking hoo blubbering Clay Aiken listening to WRECK for a week! Lucky.....

Only one day?? You're quite lucky!! I mean, hope you get better soon!! :)

Big hugs!!

Tea with St. John's Wort. It helps.

I usually just take it out on someone else. hehe :o)

Nah.. I usually try to do some exercise, as that seems to help with the mood swings and the cramps. Listen to good music, maybe let myself slide a little on what I eat for a day or two..

i hate my first day, and id always get it t work (cashier) and that would be the day people would yell at me, when im to emotional to deal and i would just start crying haha...so embarrassing, but i will vent with anger or tears...lol, and i usually pig out on foods that are very bad for me, like mc.ds, donuts and such i also listen to music ...dont know if it helps but ;)

I sulk and don't talk with anyone, AND avoid men

I can't stand men on that particular day for some reason *shrugs*

chocolate doesn't work here either

Hell, I just whip out an Uzi and start shooting people - lol!

I'm usually only beechy for one or 2 days too. My husband knows when it's coming so that helps at home....I am much more sensitive though and cry a stupid stuff (Like The Price is Right!LOL!!) Anyway, to be honest, I drink more to get through that couple of days. It helps the cramps too believe it or not
Chocolate doesn't help me either, grease, salt and like starches which I don't normally eat a lot of...fries, noodles, bread, etc.
As Gloria Gayner said: "I WILL SURVIVE!" :-)

i used to get irritable for like a week before and after!! i was having quite bad mood swings, snapping at people etc.... my doctor put me on the pill to even out my hormones and i been reasonably ok since!

I know you aren't a chocolate person- but those are my coping tools.

Well, I usually kick her out of the house for at least five days.
