Raging hormones
there are many things we blame for our attitudes and behaviour. I try as much as possible to take responsibility for the way i act or behave, so last week was a very sick one for me, had tantrums, spells, was depressed , terribly sick and very withdrawn. I thought this was symptoms or signs of malaria initially but became alarmed when things kinda toook a worse turn.....can't describe the way i feel and looked then.....
till tuesday night and i saw the flag....yeah , yeah according to a friend i saw the japanese flag and it all came rushing to me..........the symptoms, the way i felt, my emotions and my mood. My hormones where raging and fighting a battle which sadly i lost, i caved in and crumbled in pieces.
Its called PMS premenstral syndrome, according to Mayo Clinic the signs include, (had all and some thes signs men!scary)
Weight gain from fluid retention
Abdominal bloating
Breast tenderness
Tension or anxiety
Depressed mood
Crying spells
Mood swings and irritability or anger
Appetite changes and food cravings
Trouble falling asleep (insomnia)
Joint or muscle pain
Headache
Fatigue
there are more signs and there's even PMDD, most women with premenstrual syndrome experience only a few of these problems.For some women, the physical pain and emotional stress are severe enough to affect their daily routines and activities. For most of these women, symptoms disappear as the menstrual period begins.
But for some women with premenstrual syndrome, symptoms are so severe they're considered disabling. This form of PMS has its own psychiatric designation — premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD). PMDD is a severe form of premenstrual syndrome with symptoms including severe depression, feelings of hopelessness, anger, anxiety, low self-esteem, difficulty concentrating, irritability and tension. for more information read http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/premenstrual-syndrome
I pity guys sha, what they go through during such periods, its unexpliable and really there are no outright cures. So when you / your gal is feeling the blues, it could just be PMS, a good dose of TLC is a sure miracle worker..
(I'm still taking drugs for the other ailments as prescribed by my doctor, have to finish the dose)
