Mood Swings: PMS

Photo: Google
Being in a bad mood makes you less caring and more selfish, makes you talk in unloving and combative ways, and sometimes, when you’re particularly destructive and you feel like wallowing in your pity/bad mood pool, it’s just really guaranteed to exhaust the heck out of you two. – Sitti Navarro

The past few day’s been really tough for me. I was super temperamental and it affects the people around me, well even the people who’s not with me. I tend to flare up and snap even on plain/simple things. I even felt too emotional and somewhat a little depressed. Gosh, that  is not so right. And then I checked my calendar and notice that I’ll be having my period few days from now! What?? PMS?? I know, I know. That shouldn’t be an excuse for being so moody, but I cant help it. I’ve noticed that I am having this battle every freakin month! It’s a roller coaster of emotion.


I was overly ma-drama this past few weeks, and I felt sorry for the people who was affected by mood swings. My dad warned my ex bf about me being so moody. He knew me too well. I know I need a man who is patient enough especially during this moment. Someone who wont make ‘patol’ on every drama that I’ll be throwing his way. Someone who will understand that this would stop a day or two before my period. Someone who’d understand a woman like me.

According to Everyday Health , PMS can cause wild, uncontrollable mood swings in some women, who may go from crying spells to angry outbursts  and anxiety attack then back to a stable emotional state – ALL IN ONE DAY!

The most common emotional PMS symptoms are:

Irritability
Anger
Depression
Crying
Oversensitivity
Feeling nervous and anxious
Alternating sadness and rage

So there, that explains my behavior lately. Again, this shouldn’t be an excuse for me to be moody, but I hope you guys would understand how difficult is it to be a woman, especially when you have to deal with your emotion.




“You don't have to live with the emotional turmoil that PMS mood swings can bring. Instead, find relief through certain lifestyle changes and medications.”
