pmt, feeling low and anxious

PMT affects me badly each month, had a funny experience during the weekend, that caused upset, and some odd contact from someone else, thought I was dealing well with it, then pmt has begun and the emotions are out again! I am feeling anxious as well as estate agents has rang five times with various viewings today and saturday, and feel panicked, am being forced into house sale, and have recently changed agents due to having it on overpriced as ex wanted, it is all very real now, I feel panicked more about the fact I will clean and tidy and the kids will wreck it before the viewings, I have no one to help me in house or with kids, and I am disabled.. I suppose I feel rather out of control right now, what did not help was both kids had tantrums this morning and were horrible to me, I am scared they will kick off as they did last weekend, when a viewing got cancelled and I asked them to tidy up after themselves... thanks for listening needed to off load! am now going to stuff my face, to help me calm down!

have a read up on Agnus Castus...or go to a hearblist, you do need to take it for a little whie before you see results, but it really takes the edge off...
Agnus Castus helps to relieve the symptoms of PMS including irritability, depression, headache and bloating.
Recent research has indicated that Agnus Castus increases levels of the hormone progesterone in relation to oestrogen and there is compelling evidence that these effects could help to correct hormonal imbalances common in PMS, thereby helping to ease its symptoms.
Furthermore, a study from the British Medical Journal (1), that evaluated the effects of 20mg Agnus Castus fruit (Ze 440) per day, concluded that the "extract of Agnus Castus fruit is an effective and well tolerated treatment for the relief of symptoms of premenstrual syndrome".
Ze440, regarded as a premium extract of Agnus Castus, is a non-hormonal and a completely 100% natural extract

(((((mummie))) hope you feel better soon. It will pass and once you have moved it will be a new start for you.

In the meantime count to ten and take some big breaths - as many times as you need.

I think giving up caffeine is supposed to be good for pmt

Would like to say, before playing around with changing your hormone levels with supplements, you need to know what your levels are. If you can afford it, pay for a female hormone panel test, think it is around £200 where you collect your salivia over a month for levels to be tested, google it and you will find a few providers.

You should be safe though with a good b-complex with b6 and magnesium to see if that helps the PMT.

Hope things get easier for you.

I have showed up to have abnormal hormones polycystic ovaries (?SP) also showed up on a blood test to have vit B6 deficency, maybe I should go back and get checked out again!
