Describe PMS

What is PMS like?

I wake up in the morning sometimes feeling like I'm crowned with thorns and nothing but miserable thoughts and the worst songs playing in my head. The room is filthy and there is nothing I can seem to do to get it clean. Everything is suddenly a burden. I want to scream as the crown of thorns sheds into my skull. I suddenly hate everyone and hate God and am filled with foul blasphemies. Everything is bitter and nothing makes the misery leave. Negativity is no longer a choice but it is suddenly thrust upon the intellect and there is no escape from this bondage. There is suddenly no ability to feel pleasure or happiness at all.

At times like that, I wonder what PMS feels like.

PMS:
A pesky yet persistant pain in the lower back (and other hormonal bits) that will not leave you alone, and keeps bothering you to the point where your mind will try to disconnect from your body for short or long periods of time just to escape the persistant torture. When the mind is in the body, it's easy to become a hysterial ______. When the body is disconnected from the mind, your latent neurotic tendancies may surface.

Because I've heard very similar from people coming off or reacting to different meds
Okay, guilty!

I do the junk to escape it all. Pain and suffering has become an obsession of mine, not because I want it, but because it never leaves, and is everywhere in our world.

I usually wake up in the morning feeling like crap too. I've learned not to pay attention to anything my head has to tell me until at least my second cup of coffee.

Not to make light of your situation, Mat, but if you want my opinion, you'd be doing yourself a favor by getting in the habit of telling your morning head to go **** itself.

I was pretty surprised when my doctor and therapist in Indiana, both women, looked at me with a puzzled face and told me I just described PMS to them. Didn't know I'd ever have anything like it (no blood, obviously, but my IBS gives me similar cramps and bloating and feeling ucky), and it wasnt fun with just about everything being overwhelming, mood swings, and at the drop of a dime turning into an irate *****. Hormones are such an odd thing, wonderful but yet evil at the same time.

Yes, it sounds horrible like you describe
