I've been on SSRIs for a decade now and it's been the only thing that lets me stay sane during PMS. Otherwise the week before my period I'm crying, suicidal, angry, horrible, just the biggest craziest mood swings.

I went off my SSRIs 6 months ago. I feel like my emotions are more vibrant, I can properly cry and mourn the people I've lost in the last couple years (I could not cry when I heard they'd died while i was medicated). It just feels... really good. Really right.

Except for the 3-5 days a month where my moods explode.

I really want to try taking it for just that time each month or find a medication that I can. Just curious if there's anything out there? I'm talking with my psychiatrist next week. Thank you
