The PMS Retreat

Mootzee · 08-06-2005, 10:49 PM

I promised myself I would post this thread this month after having a bad PMS week last month. Come on in! Feel free to vent, gripe, b1tch, cry, whimper, etc. etc. etc. You'll find nothing but support here.

Mootzee · 08-06-2005, 10:52 PM

Okay, so I think I've gone through every emotion under the sun within the last 24 hours. I've been irked. I've been angry. I've been scared. I've been confused. I've laughed. I've cried.

*sigh* Just the start of another PMS week for me. I hope the hormone therapy kicks in soon.

JunkintheTrunk · 08-07-2005, 03:09 AM

Is it that time of the month again already? *sigh*

K Praper · 08-07-2005, 10:14 AM

I almost forgot the comfy attire!!!

Mootzee · 08-07-2005, 10:56 AM

Yes, Jen, it seems to come faster and faster anymore.

Terri, WOW! What a good PMS friend you are!!!

Just what the doctor ordered.

Doing a bit better this morning. The progesterone creme seems to have kicked in.

Skinnymocah · 08-07-2005, 01:46 PM

Mootz, I bet if you post a link to this thread over in the PG you will have 3 pages in no time FLAT!

rootbeer · 08-07-2005, 04:56 PM

I am bookmarking this thread...Not my rage week yet but good to know there is a safe place to run to.

Seelessofme · 08-07-2005, 11:02 PM

Oh, thank goodness I found you! I need a safe place to be...or my family does.

Terri, I like your supplies, but I do need some Cheetos, too.

Mootzee, it happens faster and faster for me as well. Last month it was twice...how lucky can you get?

Thanks for the good PMS company. I am hoping that I get through these next few days without bursting, my eating is not under control and heaven help anyone who tells me so!!

Here you go!!

(Is crunchy ok?????)

Mootzee · 08-08-2005, 10:39 AM

Hi, Rooty Toot Toot!!! :waves: We'll be waiting for you with chocolate in hand when you're ready.

Nancy! I hear ya about having it twice in one month. That's happened to me before, too. The only good thing was then my TOM didn't come back for over 40 days the next time. Perimenopause is a b1tch!

Terri, you got the crunchy kind, too! Woohoo! You know your stuff!!

So far I've been on an even keel. No crying. No angry outbursts. No venting. Now if I could only find my memory. I can't remember anything at the moment.

Seelessofme · 08-08-2005, 06:39 PM

LOL, Terri. That looks exactly like the bag of Cheetos that I ate this morning....fortunately TOM arrived just afterward.

Kimberly, if that means that TOM won't be back for 40 days...that is fine with me!!

Jennyl · 08-09-2005, 12:02 AM

PMS just hit the Junk household....

rootbeer · 08-09-2005, 09:14 AM

Perfect portable PMS food..Salty and Sweet.

Saw a flash of pms a few minutes ago here at the office. (Although I do believe she is just stoooooppppid

)

brilliant100 · 08-09-2005, 10:12 AM

Awesome Thread Idea!!!!!!!

I will be back when the monster arrives.

Mootzee · 08-09-2005, 12:47 PM

Welcome, Jen! We've got everything you possibly could need. And if we don't, we'll find it for ya!!!

*dayum that sundae looks good*

Mootzee · 08-09-2005, 12:48 PM

Yeah, Cheryl, salty and sweet and portable. *drool*

JunkintheTrunk · 08-09-2005, 12:57 PM

Question. Why do I have bad hair when it's TOM?

Swollen feet and hands: check
Bloated, tender tummy: check
Spotty, blotchy face: check
Crabby, irritable mood: check

Fair enough. But why bad hair as well?!

ME.WANT. NOW!!!

TOM is on its way.....cramps from hell have started....

I wish I was still on Depo and not on these damn pills.

Mootzee · 08-09-2005, 02:40 PM

Okay, I've already had two weepy moments today... one when they were talking about lung cancer on TV (my DBF smokes

) and in another thread when someone was talking about your parents dying. My parents are perfectly healthy in their 70s but for some reason this struck me the wrong way and I ended up bawling.

*sigh*

rootbeer · 08-16-2005, 09:45 AM

hmmm no one is around

*GRABS*

AND

*Hides under covers with stash*

Jennyl · 08-17-2005, 12:00 PM

bleh
Have a lot of cramps today....this only happens about one day out of the month. PMS wasn't too bad this month, a lot better than the hell I went through last month! Still, I have one bad day with the cramps, I know I'll feel a lot better tomorrow. It's noon now...too early for that martini?

You know the song "It's five o'clock somewhere" Here's your drink:

I usually get cramps on the last day of my period. Ugh! It's like a final hurrah.

tinabeanus · 08-19-2005, 10:16 AM

I am having some major PMS today. Why is it when my husband is home with the baby all day the house is a freakin wreck and why is it when I am home with the baby all day everything gets done and looks nice?? Why also does my husband throw garbage in the sink (onion skins and other food matter) We dont have a garbage disposal??
