Girls, do you feel like you get more suspicious of your man when it’s almost that time of the month?

I realize that when I’m PMSing my anxiety sky rockets which leads me to overthink and get highly suspicious of my boyfriend. It doesn’t help that I’ve been cheated on in the past, and my boyfriend has a history of lying… Please tell me that I’m not the only one 🥲

Yes…

Nope

I kinda relate actually, but in a different way. I have chronic stress sometimes and for me its triggered by fatigue. If I am not doing well my mind will possibly seek a reason I am feeling that way and while the real reason is fatigue it might go to the last mental reason for me to fell that way which was my last breakup. So then I will feel as if I am dealing with breakup pain despite that just being an identical feeling to the physical fatigue / stress I am going trough in those moments.

So I assume what your feeling during your period is similar to how you felt around the time you got cheated on, hence the association.

Well basically you just need to learn to cope. Don’t put yourself down for it, just find ways to cope like rationalizing it “Its that time of the month and I get extra anxious calm down”. Find a system that works for you and with your best interest at heart that doesn’t harm you.

What is that time of the month?
