    Hey luna,

    Sorry to hear you’re in a funk still. I don’t remember if we’ve discussed it before, but have you considered birth control pills to help with the PMS? There’s all kinds out there these days, and I know some people have reactions, but it might be worth trying out. Personally, I’m on Lybrel (the 365-day pill), so I never get my period or PMS. It’s lovely. A lot of women at work think I’m crazy for doing it because it’s “unnatural” but it’s no more unnatural than popping pills to get rid of a headache, or for taking ‘regular’ bc pills. I used to be on Seasonique (the 4-times a year period pill) and that was nice too, but I’d rather not deal with the horror of PMS and my period at all.

    You’ve seemed so restless lately. Maybe you should consider trying to get a little part time job? It would give you some outside stimulation that isn’t internet based, would get you out of the house, and get you some more spending money.

    If it’s just your period time and the mood goes away then great but I was feeling like this a lot and we have no health insurance right now and a herbalist suggested I try St Johns Wort. I did and I take it every day because if I don’t I feel myself starting to struggle and slip back into bad moods. It doesnt leave side effects like normal anti depressants. You might want to consider it.

    Luna, I think I remember that you have thyroid issues, right? You might want to do some research before using a hormonal based birth control method. Estrogens can really make it difficult to keep your thyroid levels stable if the tyroid is already acting up. Just a thought.

    have you considered light therapy? you say you live in Iowa…long winter makes it hard. I deal with depression and have for most of my life. I have a lamp…two actually that help so much with my moods. it might be something to consider that would not affect your thyroid medications…talk to your doc and see what he thinks… wishing you improved moods and outlook!
