Is menstration linked to increased anxiety

Usually my anxiety meds work ok but the past couple days my anxiety has exploded. I started my period yesterday.

Hell yes
Sometimes symptoms come on around period
Also I get very low around that time

@shellys12. So lucky to be female eh?

I get thrown off during my cycle. Everything is intensified. Now I’m going through menopause and I feel unsteady… hormones are powerful things!

Ive been on like three short walks today.

Sometimes I get dizzy and feel really ill then I get really hot and I have to have sugar to make me feel right again
Might be menopause

My periods only last two to three days. I may b heading toward menopause myself.

Sugar? Might you be hypoglycemic?

What is that I don’t always get that just now and then

Oh ok. Hypoglycemia is basically I think where your blood sugar levels drop extremely low and you have to eat else well I’ve seen my exhusband get disoriented sweaty and dizzy if he didn’t eat.

Yes I probably got that
What causes it I don’t know might be clozaril

I have no idea what causes it.

Yeah because of estrogen i guess :full_moon_with_face:
