Random days where I suddenly think everyone hates me?

Wondering if anyone else knows what this could be?

I haven't put this in mental health as due to the cycle of it, I'm not sure if it could be related to my menstrual migraines and hormonal issues?

But some days I am suddenly overwhelmed with a belief that everyone hates me and I will overthink all the interactions I've ever had with people that prove it! If this was a constant thing I would think it was mental health. I feel overwhelmingly anxious with my heart racing and an impending sense of doom. I temporarily become unable to function due to it...then as quickly as this happens. It's like a flip switch and I'm back to my normal perky self. It feels like a whole personality transplant, down to perspectives, beliefs, everything.

What could this be? Anyone relate and how do I stop it?

For me this is two things - usually hormones and also boredom. Sometimes I can’t sleep or I have too much thinking time and I panic about death and everything I’ve ever done wrong and think I’m the worst person in the world. Again some days I hate my whole family and want a divorce. Couple of days later I’m fine. I suffer really really badly with my periods and my up and down moods. To me it’s kind of normal to have those moment when you think these thoughts. Having spoken to other people you realise they think that way too. Just recognise the thoughts as unreasonable and be easy on yourself. We are living in a difficult confusing time x

I feel the same OP but it's constant - it became constant when I went through menopause abruptly due to chemotherapy so I agree with you and @40andprettybored that it's probably largely hormonal. I don't really know the solution but I hope you can find some relief from it. I wonder if there are any supplements that help.
