P.M.S. "Psycho Mommy Syndrome"
Okay you lucky people who only read my blog and never actually deal with me...it's almost "that" time of the month. As I age the physical symptoms aren't so bad, it's the mental ones that are KILLING me! I did a little research and according to Google University I could be perimenopausal! No way!! Not me! I'm too young to be --- that word! I refuse to accept it.
I was explaining my dilemma to a friend. I told her I can't stand feeling psychotic three or four days a month. She told me she only feels normal three or four days a month, which actually made me feel a little bit better. (I'm such a good friend!)
When I feel myself getting highly annoyed when someone moves my crock pot or asks for milk one too many times I try to tell myself "this too shall pass." I remind myself that my insanity is temporary. It's weird, because when I'm in the throes of it I feel too overwhelmed to go to a doctor. When I'm better, I feel fine so I don't feel the burning desire to get help. I know there are lots of drugs out there and natural solutions to help ease my symptoms, I really should check them out. For my sake and for the sake of anyone who messes with me on those three or four dangerous days!
Maybe they will book me on "Oprah" as a guest! There's something I can do when Catherine goes to kindergarten! I can become a professional PMSer. Or a spokesperson for perimenopause! YES!!! I knew it would come to me.
Now I just need an agent.

We need to talk sister! With my health history I am in the middle of full blown menopause at 40. It's a load of fun.
I think I'm in menopause too, because I keep going from cold to really hot.
If you find a drug to help with the 3-4 days a month when you turn into psycho mom please let me know. Anything to get past those few days would be great!! I personally think hybernation is the only cure...
I was touched about your story here. I really appreciate you share your experiences and feelings towards this on what you have really felt. You can go to a doctor for check and talk about this. Maybe this can help you.
