I know that I cry a lot at the beginning of my period, but I’ve started noticing that it’s happening a lot towards the end of my period as well. I also seem to get really insecure and depressed around then too.
I can’t exactly do anything about it besides chanting, “it’s hormones. It’ll go away soon.” But that doesn’t make the feelings really go away. And I can’t tell people that for x number of days during my period they can’t do things that send me spiraling because that’s super manipulative and not healthy at all.
I just have to make it a couple more days and I can be back to my normal weirdness.
Ick, I hate the way hormones control everything. I am currently in perimenopause and experiencing the whole “period sadness.” I am generally a happy person, but since this whole menopause crap started I have been feeling sad/depressed, and just not happy. Hopefully you get back to your normal weirdness soon!
