    God, I hate it when my cervix is freaking out and all of a sudden there are multiple copies of myself like a lagging cursor running on Windows ME. It scares the children, you know?

    @meritxell: Yes! My first thought was that someone had used Ginger Snaps in a PMS commercial. "Pamprin IB: The next best thing to monkshood."

    I've been looking for a pill that will do away with my strong opinions but keep my cramps, but so far no luck. The pharmaceutical industry is so unfair.

    At first I thought that being saved from werewolves = disguising the smell of blood. I'm super weird but once in college after being greeted by a super-friendly dog my friend announced, "I think dogs like to smell vaginas when women are on their periods" and now I always think about that when I have my period and am around dogs. Ew.

    Sorry if this is a TJ, but does any of this stuff work? For maybe the past year I have been getting crazy bloated and moody (the moods may be a result of the bloat). I put on 10 pounds every cycle (it comes off agan the week after my period). Is this normal? Can I sign up to become a werewolf instead?

    I remember most of those commercials. Mostly because before I got my period, they terrified me about what it would be like to have my period.

    I'm extremely lucky in that Mr. Brit Chick has never been afraid to tell me when I'm acting like a bitch to him, but at the same time is gentle about it. Sort of a "hey, I don't know if you realised, but that comment kinda hurt", and he's NEVER taken my PMS (before I was BC-ed up the eyeballs) lightly. He's also never made it worse by arguing the toss with me like my sister does >.<

    I had a roommate once who was bipolar, and her depression would be set off by the onset of her period. So three weeks out of the month we were the best of friends, and then suddenly she'd be like "fuck off and die." She would be uncommunicative, uncooperative, and crazy sensitive. And I just had to wait it out the week until she got over it. It took me a long time to realize that it was her problem, not something I was doing wrong.

    I just got my period while this comment thread was going on. Jezebel is exerting some strange hormonal force on me.

    My God. I'm so showing this to my boyfriend. He's always whining about how bad I am, and mine only lasts like two days.


    I'm glad they're back together, anyhow :)

    Does anyone know if PMS-like symptoms can occur just after menstruating? I have a lot of the standard PMS symptoms - excessive emoting, fatigue, feeling excessively overweight - which all go away as soon as I start my period. However, around the last day or so of my period, the PMS all comes back about 10x worse for about 24 hours. WTF.
