Depressed, or just PMS?

Right, writing this when im in a good mood and feeling perfectly normal.
Have had a history of depression, though not for about 2 years.
Have recently moved in with DP who is the best thing thats ever happened to me and the feelings mutual.
Moving was incredibly stressful as im sure you lot will know.
The past few days I have felt that I hate DP and have made the worst mistake of our lives by moving in together. I couldn't stand to be in the same room as him and felt the uncontrollable rage (which was controllable, obviously as we are all still well and fine)
Poor guy seems to put up with these rages that I get, but im worried that im going to push him away in time.
I never really used to get PMT, but this just seems to be getting worse and worse.
Today i've been great, but i never know what kind of mood im going to be in and everything gets exaggerated in my head iykwim.
If it was the depression coming back, wouldn't I feel like this all the time. Is it PMS, if so, is there anything I can do, its getting horrendous?

How bad you feel when depressed can vary. I'm sure you know that sometimes you feel ok and other times are awful. It can vary from hour to hour not just day to day.

From what you've said, I don't know if it's depression or PMT... can you talk to your gp about it? It might be worth a mention to rule one of those, if not both. Maybe in the meantime you could keep a diary/ record of your mood & time of the month to see if it could be PMT?

Best of luck.
