So I am on medication, and recently we upped my lithium dose. Of course, we upped it right as I’m starting my period, so right now my PMS is out of this world crazy. I feel so bad for my SO, he’s been so kind and understanding (as best as he can). I try and catch myself before I blow up, but sometimes it’s so hard. Earlier, a customer blew up at me over something that is literally out of my hands and not my problem. I felt so shaky and enraged, my coworkers told me to shake it off and not let it ruin my day. Which that pissed me off even more! I know I shouldn’t let it ruin my day, which it hasn’t, but jeez let me be mad for a couple minutes. Get outta my face with this positivity bullshit.

I’m actually hiding in the bathroom as I type this, I just don’t wanna be here at work, but I can’t leave because we’ll be short staffed and I’m a manager. I just can’t stand people right now and I feel like I’m going to explode. Can anyone give me some advice on how to handle PMS with BP2? Or just advice in general about handling this rage and being able to get through my day. Please.
