Just wondering if anyone else can honestly say they feel or have felt this way. I get overwhelmed quite easily, usually around my period, i feel more anxious, have intrusive thoughts like I'm going to harm one of my children because they've overwhelmed me, which frightens me, sometimes I feel like i could lash out, I wake in the night feeling anxious and just overall feel different when due on. I know this can be PMS or PMDD, I have had suicidal thoughts in the past and they can be worse during this time. Its the harmful thoughts surrounding my children that bother me the most. I think the recent Lindsay Clancy case has frightened me and highlighted these thoughts making me think what if I do something like that. My 3 year old can be very difficult and intense aswell as daughter who is 11 with adhd, no support system, busy lifestyle working etc so I just feel constantly in a state of fight or flight. I know these thoughts/feelings only appear when I'm at a point of overwhelm and not when I'm coping well. I already take sertraline which suits me well albeit I forget to take it sometimes. Please be kind and honest
