Hi All,
I know that we have all discussed how your period can effect you anxiety level. I am one of those people who is definately makes things worse for me.
Especially this month I have gotten my period twice... UUGGGG
Anyway, it just ended yesterday and I was wondering if when your period ends you feel any anxiety from the change in hormones again.
I am having a pretty rough day, I have a lot of the unreal feeling today.. not fun.

I can't honestly tell you!! Just thought I would try to
make you laugh!! HUGS!! Judy
I'm always a mess when I have my period, my anxiety is worse. I had mine the 1st to the 6th. Was weepy yesterday & today. Had a pa last eve, extrememely high anxiety this a.m. I don't know why. I'm usually like this right before or during my period. I hope I don't get mine again this month. I went through that from Jan to May, every 2 weeks I'd get it. I was thinking maybe it's a full moon, but just checked the calendar and that isn't until the 6th of July! lol!

Heather,
I stopped taking birth control a few months ago, and my period was all wacked out. I would skip it, and then have it twice in a month, and then next month have it for like 15 days--so ya it was really screwed up. During this time, is when my anxiety all began. I noticed, even before my first panic attack, that my anxiety was terrible since going off of BC, because of how irregular my period was and my hormones were jumping all over the place. I recently have gone back on birth control, and noticed already that my anxiety is better, and my doctor told me that because of the controlled hormones with BC, that anxiety should be very much decreased.
So yes, having your period, especially a very irregular one like yours (twice in a month) could definetly send your body through a lot of emotional and hormonal roller coasters which in turn could make your anxiety worse. I hope you feel better!
