    Default Severe PMS is messing up my game...i've tried everything!!!

    I've been dealing with PMS for a while now, but within the past year it seems to have gotten worse. I have a history of anxiety/depression and I'm on meds that help that during the rest of the month except the week before my period. I've tried all of the obvious remedies. I barely drink as it is, I limit my caffeine intake, I eat super healthy, the only craving i give into is some frozen yogurt or a mocha light frappacino from starbucks. I try to exercise, but work seems to be all my body can handle the week before. I take a multi-vitamin, b-complex, vitamin D, magnesium and calcium, and fish oil supplements. Still, with all of these preventative measures i take, I still have a break down at work at least once a month, and it's always right before my period. I would consider myself a decent hustler, I normally let stuff roll off my back, and I always seem to know the right things to say. I make my club decent money especially on slow nights when most girls don't give a crap because there's no one there. Before my period I just feel awkward and weird and it seriously affects my work. I've tried to explain this to management, but since all women go through this they are less than sympathetic. It's worse for me since I have other mental issues which i try to control, but at this time of the month it is nearly impossible. I get so weak and tired i just want to be left alone. I'll sit in the back and cry and management gets pissed that they have to take me off stage because I can't pull myself together. I've tried going to the doctor to figure this out, but he's been less than helpful...I may have to go see someone else. I can't go on birth control because it makes my mood swings even worse. I'm wondering if anyone else has been through this and how they've dealt with it... especially when working around unsympathetic management.

    You probably already know this, but it sounds like you have PMDD, not just PMS. When you tried birth control, did you try a regular one or something like Yaz (which is supposedly helpful in treating PMDD)? The only other treatment for PMDD of this level I know of is an anti-depressant, but Idk how you feel about that...

    Is there any possibility of just being scheduled off during that time? It sounds like way more pain than it's worth.

    I would go get my blood tested. I had extreme bleeding, cramps, and mood swings when I was 11, the year I started. I was put on BC which helped and over the years it regulated me. I would usually last up to 11 days but at times my period or lack there of would stretch out over 4 month periods. It was that bad. So recently I got blood drawn and tested and it turns out I'm on the low end of having anemia. This could very well be what's wrong with you. I was lacking vitamin E as well so now I'm taking vitamin E and iron pills.
