I am one of those girls who has it more difficult, facing 7 days of hell, a.k.a. PMS, once a month. I am here to help guide you with some of the tricks I use in order to relieve these hellish days. When I am on my period, my mood changes at an insanely quick rate. My cramps get so terrible that it feels like the world is falling apart. One minute I feel happy, and the next minute I am crying over a jelly bean. There is no way to get around PMS completely. But the good news? You can reduce some the intense emotions and pain by learning new ways of dealing with them.
So maybe you are asking yourself, “Well, how do I find things that work for me?” Try keeping a journal or starting a blog and write down how you are feeling. Every girl’s body is different, so keeping track of what you respond best to could be incredibly helpful. Below I have listed some of the tips that work best for me.
Also, don’t worry if you still can’t find anything to make these PMS days better. Sometimes you just have to push through it. It won’t last forever! Don’t beat yourself if you get a major break out or have a meltdown over a jelly bean. It is perfectly normal to be emotional during your time of the month!
