PMS

in Infertility
My cycle is a little longer than usual this time, and I've been waiting on AF since Monday (there's zero chance I'm pregnant, so mostly this is just an annoyance preventing me from setting up a new FET calendar.)

But then this morning, in the shower, I forgot which bottle contained my shampoo. Rather than dealing with this logically (ie, noticing that I was tired and also my bottle had been moved from its usual location) I decided this meant I was developing Alzheimer's like my grandparents. Then I got sad thinking about how my DH would have to put me in a home, and I needed to make sure he knew I loved him even if I didn't remember him and maybe I should write him a letter to read when I died, and I hoped that he would remarry but also visit me when I had "good" days in the home. 

And then I cried in the shower for 5 minutes straight.

So I'm *pretty* sure AF is almost here. What a c*nt.

So what's your stupidest PMS freakout?

    LOL! There's usually one day before AF that I need to close the door and watch sentimental movies on Netflix, as I'm going to be crying all day long anyway. The most ridiculous one recently was when I was convinced my OH was thinking of leaving me, when really he was just very stressed out and preoccupied with some work stuff. I hadn't been on my best behavior (FU HORMONES!!!), so I still had some apologizing to do, but the marriage was still okay. :\">

    There was this one time I was PMSing and wanted to throat punch a drive by poster...oh wait. That just happened;) I think I am PMSing but I never get AF without provera or bcp. I have been crampy, irritable and tired.
    WOW, I just caught up with that thread. Thanks for handling that, btw.

    I've had AF since Sunday after stopping BCP. Finally almost finished with it today. Anyway I was in Target today wasting time and since I'm on lupron I had serious hot flashes today. Well I was sweating to death in target and somewhat light headed when I decided to buy double stuffed oreos to get some sugar in me. I checked out and sat in the car eating Oreos. I get home and DH couldn't believe I had already opened the Oreos. He has no clue hahahaha.

    Omg, allll of this is how I've been feeling/acting the past 2 months! My hormones are so messed up lol I have been using exercise and doing something active as a way to cope and/or lesson the effects of my moods. It helps a bit! Sometimes, I just go up to my room to just be alone and decompress. Usually, I'm left alone ;)

    This sounds like my AF to a tee.  (Maybe we have the same AF, which would make us cousins, right?)

    I haven't had AF since March for IVF related reasons, and she just came back this week.  That's when I realized how much I didn't miss that b*tch.  >:P

    It makes you blood sisters, I think. Like when you were little, and you'd prick your fingers and rub them together, except infinitely more gross.
