Author: Sara Traynor Other people had to have been struggling with this, right? There was no way I was the only one. But if that was true, then why didn’t I – or anyone else I knew, for that matter – know about it? Why had I wasted years of my life pushing people away, feeling miserable, and not even understanding why? I’m going to make sure that nobody else has to go through what I did. Ever since I got my period at age 12, my pre- menstrual symptoms have been intense. It was like clockwork: for about a week and a half every month, I couldn’t get out of bed. I couldn’t focus on the simplest tasks. Even the most minor inconveniences or disagreements could send me spiraling: my suddenly overwhelming anxiety made mountains out of molehills. And then, within the first couple days of my period, the cloud lifted. I could breathe again. At first, I thought this was normal. All the descriptions of PMS I could find described symptoms like the ones I was experiencing. Fati
