short 2) Why PMS Rage Isn’t “Just Moodiness”

 

“If you turn into a completely different person before your period… this is not just moodiness.”

Biological Explanation


Right before your period, estrogen and progesterone drop fast.

That drop affects serotonin — your brain’s “feel good” chemical.

Lower serotonin can mean:
• Irritability
• Anger
• Crying spells
• Zero emotional tolerance

This is chemistry. Not personality.

Why It Can Feel Extreme


If you’re already stressed, under-slept, or running on caffeine and low blood sugar…

Your nervous system is more sensitive during this phase.

So small things feel Huge.

Your body isn’t overreacting.
It’s overloaded.

When It’s More Than Pms


And if your rage feels extreme — like it’s affecting your relationships or work — it could be something called PMDD.

That’s a severe form of premenstrual mood symptoms.
And it’s real.

You’re not dramatic.
You’re not crazy.
Your brain chemistry is shifting.

Track it. Support it. Don’t shame it.

Comment “PMS” if this makes sense — and follow for more women’s health truths.
