Not always fun to be right

purplerabbitYeah, I was right. It was PMS. At least I didn't yell at anyone.
I spent Sunday trying not to react to anything. I watched TV and copied our CD collection into our main server hard drive. (So we can now listen to any of our music from any of our laptops and the new wireless stereo connection.)
I am glad I didn't have a melt down but it is hard to just sit and try not to feel for a couple days. Monday came the blood and the cramps. Oh, in case I didn't mention it, PMS is always accompanied with a flare-up of the fibro pain too. So I spent the last several days with mood swings (mostly down), joint pain, and cramps. The heat didn't help either.
Good news is that I should be returning to a better state by the end of the week. I may even be social again. I was moody enough last week that I avoided most social contact -- to save myself and others unnecessary pain.
I hate the way progesterone makes me feel awful and do things I am upset by. It is like some sort of possession by an angry spirit I don't think most people can even comprehend how helpless this makes me feel. Poisoned by my body's own natural hormones. Betrayed by my own body. Yecch.
