PMS or Bipolar Disorder?!
Question: PMS or Bipolar Disorder!?
Hi, i have several probelms on the days before and the week of my period!. I change 180 on my personality and need to stop right away!. I live with my boyfriend and would like to spend my life with him!. However, when I have my period I just want to end all things, I hate his parents so much that when he is talking on the phone with them I just keep telling him to just hang up and how they are wrong in everything!. Then, I feel like seeing other people and can picture myself with other people for the whole week of my period!. I want my bf to move out so I can see other men!. But I dont!. Then I also, I have no idea why, but I want to get marry and have a child with bf soon, and he doesnt but later on in life!. When the period is over, I am back to myself, happy, enegetic, content, and loving my bf like crazy (without the desire of seeing other men)!. And then when my period comes, its the same thing just like a circle!. I want this to stop!. How can I!? Are the medications out there!? My bf says hes okay with it but I can see that he is sick and tired of this week of my period!. Are these sign for Bipolar!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
It's normal to be a little b*tchy when you're on your period!. But if it's unusually bad, it could be PMDD (Pre-Menstrual Dysphoric Disorder) which is like PMS times 1,000,000! See your doctor to find out if this is what may be happening to you!. There are antidepressants the doctor can prescribe for you to decrease the symptoms of PMDD!. It doesn't necessarily mean you're bipolar!. It would be different if you were getting these symptoms at times OTHER THAN when you're on your period!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Just go to your family doctor!. She will be able to tell you!. Because it only happens a week before your period I doubt that it is Bipolar disorder!. Your doctor will be able to help!. Please make an appointment!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
