Looking for an argument..

[lily24]

I'm worried that I keep doing this.

I know I'm doing it, but why at the time can I not see that its crazy?

I'm worried about some kind of depression as its like a release then I feel better but its awful afterwards, its not me

My poor OH putting up with this, I even now am feeling sorry for my kids - I feel like a useless mum

It sounds like you may have anxiety issues hun. Maybe keep a diary - how you were feeling before argument, what the situation was, what you did, etc etc.

I do this too and I never realise I'm doing it till after. Don't have any solutions though just wanted to let you know you're not alone

How often does it occur? Every day? All month long?

Not often. But couldn't quite say if there's a specific time/reason. Just happens and then I hate myself for it

Could you give an example? Is it something you start? Or are you getting defensive over something... ? I know that when I'm PMSing reeeeeeally bad, everything just annoys the crap out of me- and I let it be known, but in that moment, I don't even care I'm being a bit biatchy- even though in my head I know I'm doing it... but only happens maybe once every several months (if that). Hubby usually just looks at me like I've gone mad, and knows not to engage with me when I'm acting that way- as it would just escalate due to my ridiculousness-- then a while later I feel bad and apologize. I hate that feeling though- it's almost uncontrollable like I can feel my blood boiling... (or that is what I tell myself).

Sorry- prob not the same thing... but hard to really understand. Maybe try to see if there is a common denominator-- something that triggers this? Just a thought.

You might want to track your moods on a mood chart (Google it) for a cycle or two and see if they're at all related to your menses. PMS and PMDD are tricky b*tches
