I identify with this so much 💔 it’s awful and makes everything so much more isolating. My cycles are all over the place and my period is completely unpredictable. This past cycle I felt like I was about to get my period every week and I’d have panic attacks and insane anxiety. But after my period came I felt better. I would definitely find a professional to talk to! I haven’t been diagnosed either and am frankly afraid of what the treatment would be as hormonal birth control has only ever made things worse for me 😞 I hope you get some answers and find a way to feel better ❤️ please feel free to message if you need to!
Thank you both ❤️ it's so awful isn't it @Meghan I honestly thought it was just how I was but since having my baby I've began tracking my cycles properly and really noticed what's happening to me. Been on BC since I was 18 so never known anything different and now I'm not on it I can finally realise what's happening. I am going to speak to a GP about this as I feel I can't carry on with the major lows then feeling fine 10 mins later. It's really starting to affect how I parent too so needs something done. Hope you are okay, sending hugs 🥰
I went through it too. Although I think I had baby blues instead. I was constantly crying, barely ate anything and just wanted to sleep whenever my son slept (which was a lot). It’s so hard because you don’t see the light at the end of the tunnel. But, as the months pass you will slowly feel better again ❤️❤️
I thought this was baby blues but it happens all the time, around the same time. My sons 8.5 months old now and still happening. It happened bad around 4 months pp and I spoke to HV and got people involved to talk to, but then I felt fine so stopped the help. Then it seems to rear it's head again 🥲
I would recommend talking with a mental health therapist. They can be so helpful when you’re going through something. I have used Talkspace
