about ten days before i start to feel like a volcano waiting to erupt only started when i hit my 30's, im now 32 and really suffer, not as much as my hubbie but i do suffer.
Two days. Without fail.
mcfluff, could you be pregnant?
I get mine a week before but had it bad when i was pregnant.
It may just be a blip and youre getting it early. Whatever the cause i hope you feel less teary soon. x
It's always a couple of days before for me, best to just stay out of my way!
dont worry this is normal i usually start to feel like this about a week and a half before i actually come on my breasts go very sore and i feel like sh1t, and my god!!! i feel sorry for my boyfriend, i go in a right strop!!!!
everyones cycle is different it can change if you are under some kind of stress p s eat the chocolate
10 days before, i get KILLER pains but don't go properly mental until about 4 days before.

Have changed my eating habits in the last month and my pms this month was bloody horrendous (paranoid, paranoid, paranoid) so i am assuming it has something to do with my food.

All done and dusted for this month now... so back to being my normal lovely self.

Have you changed anything recently?

Evening primrose oil is supposed to be good for PMS.
And DON'T go low-carb... DON'T GO LOW-CARB....... DON'T GO LOW-CARRRRRRRRRRRB...

It could make things a whole lot worse.

One week to the day for me. It's awful and I get everything, I'm shattered, grumpty, argumentative, emotional and get pains!
Question Author

a nice bath with scented candles loads of chocolate a few ? glasses of wine and a man free zone and watch rubbish on the t v
Ah... now i wonder... i missed out on the choc this month... wonder if THAT had anything to do with the raging mentals...?

Question Author
quick fee, have one of these - flinging a G&B choccy bar across cyberspace
Oh the temptation...!!!!!!!!!

Must be good, must be good, must be good, must be good........

Oooops...
I used to get horrific PMS when I was on the Pill (weird I know cos it's meant to help balance things!) Came off the Pill about a year ago (having treid 4 different ones over the years), and now I feel much better as far as PMS goes. don't seem to get as many mood swings, don't seem to cry as much (although the trade off is much heavier periods - booooooo!)
Question Author
i'm not on the pill anymore, just me and my natural born hormones, think i'm just getting older and grumpier!, although having a good rant on here has helped (maybe the choc too)
I have never before in my life had a regular cycle. However, since going onto a wheat/gluten free diet, my health is better than it has ever been and I have a regular 4 week cycle which is very novel. However, it was only this month that I realised that I am getting PMS. never before having a regualr cycle and having many health problems and having pregnancies successful and unsuccessful in quick succession, i haven't ever built up a pattern.

The problem I have now is I turn into some kind of psychopath 1 week before my cycle starts: crying, temper tantrums, rudeness, pains, feelings of desperation and also aggressive and shouty, it's a nightmare not to mention dreadful insomnia also. Then on about day 3 of my cycle It vanishes in a puff of smoke and the kids don't know if it's safe to look at me or not.

As so many of you also suffer (another revelation to me) can anyone recommend how I can fix this? Are there any remedies? or shall I just book myself into a convent every 3 weeks so as not to mix with others?

Its been nice reading this thread as I don't feel so monstrous or freakish now!
