Autism and PMT

Hi sorry this is a bit sensitive but I am suffering from really bad PMT my boyfriend is suffering because of it. We both have autism. Right now my mood swings are really bad one minute we can be having a laugh and a joke then the next I’m giving him a hard time and I get angry and upset and it’s driving him up the wall. My boyfriend been really ill these last few weeks and has spent over 3 weeks in hospital 2 of those weeks he been in ICU. I’m really worried I’m going to make him ill again or we end up breaking up. I’m asking does anyone else suffer from bad PMT and how do you deal with it because ause I’m at breaking point here.

  • I had crazy bad PMT until I saw my GP 5 years ago. Anything, I mean anything, would tip me over the edge when I was on my period, and the last straw was when a mood swing nearly made me throw myself in front of a bus. I got a really understanding (female) GP who put me on the pill. A few weeks on, my mood stabilized and my periods and mood is just normal now. 

    It's interesting to see a BBC article showing other women like me - www.google.com/.../uk-wales-53570704.amp

    Also, a bonus of the pill was my period pain went away!
