Ladies around the time of my period, i get weak and cannot get off the couch. My anxiety is to the roof. Is this normal or is there something else wrong with me? It just started a few months ago after i stopped taking paxil, i have never felt like this before.

Yes my periods effect my anxiety massively, I've been off for 1 week and I honestly feel great! I'm not in any medication but I take the contraceptive pill, unless it can be that?

Well im not on any meds now. I just wish that it would get better soon.

There have been a few threads recently about anxiety being worse during menstruation, with many women writing to say that it is. I am actually on the Mirena IUD, which also has a hormonal component. This has caused my menstruation to basically stop altogether. I did it because I have fibromyalgia and the cramps were killing me. It's the bomb not having periods anymore. I'm never going back.

That would be sooooo great not to have a period.

Lol...yes, to answer the original question...I'm on my monthly right now, and the anxiety had been bad, just like it is every first few days of my period. I'm on my second day now, and really trying hard not to be too crabby to my family.
