Be Good To Girls!

So what is this post about? It's about the problem I'm having now. Mood swings during period!! I guess many girls out there have the same problem as me. So what should we do?

I did some research just now because I can't tolerate anymore! It's bothering me much! *angry*

First of all, I'm gonna show you the symptoms of PMS!

*Acne
*Back pain
*Bloated abdomen
*Changes in appetite, including cravings for certain foods.
*Constipation
*Crying spells
*Depression
*Fast heartbeat
*Feeling irritable, tense or anxious
*Feeling tired
*Headache
*Hot flashes
*Joint pain
*Mood swings
*Not feeling as interested in sex
*Tender and swollen breasts
*Trouble concentrating
*Trouble sleeping
*Swollen hands or feet
*Wanting to be alone
*Weight gain

See how pity we girls are? I am actually experiencing more and more of the above symptoms since the start of my PMS! Almost half of the above I'm suffering now. What about you?

Period is a very difficult time for women. We experience stomach cramps and so on. The worst is mood swings for me. It can be quite a nightmare you know. I don't know whether it goes the same to you!? But based on my research, the reason for mood swings is either hormonal changes or stress, or even both!

So how to cure? Here are some ways but I'm not sure whether it's effective or not.

Step One
You should stay away from sugar, caffeine and just about all things sweet, especially during and around the time of your menstrual cycle. Sweets will have you confessing your love one minute, then two minutes later you're throwing objects and displaying hatred to those nearest and dearest to you. Though you probably crave sweets more when you are on your period, this is the time you most want to stay refrain from having anything sweet.

Step Two
At times you will find yourself bothered by things that usually don't matter to you, or you may just be angry for no particular reason. This is the tough part, but you need to realize that you are not angry because you want to be, but rather you are angry due to a chemical imbalance. Remind yourself that you were created this way and you may not be in a good mood right now, but you're going to control yourself because you are a good person who just happens to be in a bad mood and this bad mood shall pass and everything will be perfect!

Step Three
During depression many people contemplate suicide, but if they have someone to talk to, they will be reminded that they are loved and needed for one reason or another. You must have a support system; people who will make you laugh when you feel like crying.

Okay! I didn't actually know that mood swings during period can be such a huge heath problem. Even suicide? OMG!! I'm kinda worried. Just as what have been mentioned just now, I get angry and sad for no reason or over very small things. Get bothered by things easily, especially those that are totally unnecessary!!! Mood swings during period only started last year for me and now it's getting worse and worse. To tell the truth, I am almost crying every night during period now. This problem started this year around April I guess. I just feel sad and not happy and feel like something is blocking my way, feeling damn so not good and tears flowing. Sometimes I even cry until my eyes swollen. But you know what? Crying put me to sleep at last! LOL

So everything is clear now and I'm not weird!! It's natural!!! *phew* I thought I am totally a weirdo! Anyway I can't control my stupid mood swings yet so I'm sorry if I'm being bad to you, or harsh in the way I talk, and for being so emotional as well. Especially to my family, I always talk to them in an impatient way. =s

Boys, be good to girls alright? Give extra care for your girlfriend. Be understanding no matter how ridiculous we are during this period of time. Period is just so troublesome to us. We still need to worry about overflowing at night when we sleep, at the time when we go out and so on. How I wish guys could try to have PMS for just one day with all the symptoms! HAHAHA

Think that's all. Headache is coming and I feel like sleeping again. I have nothing I want to eat. I want CHOCOLATES!!! =(

Took me about one hour to retype everything. STUPID BLOGGER!!!! Made me being sooooo rude to my laptop just now! >=(
