I have 3 children. The youngest is 9 months. My periods came back about 4 months ago, very soon after I stopped breast feeding.
The past 3 months/cycles, in the 3-4 days before my period arrives, I have had crippling, all consuming anxiety. I worry about anything and everything. It's extreme and I can hardly work with it. I make fairly mild day to day issues or life complexities into absolutely massive, worst case scenario eventualities in my mind.
I also get floored with tiredness. Today I have slept for huge parts of the day which I never do. I feel bad I've hardly been able to hang out with the kids all day.
I'm not on any contraceptive pill yet.
Does anyone else have this. Any suggestions on what I could do to make it better. I didn't have this before baby no3. The tiredness, yes, albeit more normal levels of tiredness, but not the anxiety.
