I'm really snappy on my period.
I know its normal, but my boyfriend and friends are starting
to get impatient with me about it.
Is there anything I can do to control this? I dont want
to lose my boyfriend or friends xD
Please dont suggest the Pill either ;D

Midol might help you control your mood swings. Midol is like a advil or whatever but for women on their period with PMS. There are also pills you can get perscribed to you to help battle PMS. If your parents are having issues with your mood this shouldn't be easy. There are even some vitamins. Look in your pharmacy vitamin section. If you have a Curves facility near you (the woman's workout center) I know they sell some PMS regulation vitamins at a reasonable price.
I don't understand why you wouldn't want us to suggest the pill. It's a valid suggestion that many people use simply for PMS and menstration.
There are also some herbal medications and teas that could help.
I also think part of PMS is in the mind. Some women do get moody, but it gets worse when they think about it.

I'm SUPER phobic of pills and stuff that might have an ulterior side effect I don't want so I just get a Thermacare heating pad and eat some chocolate (cookie's n cream is the best to me, or any Hershey's) and then I'm happy.
I also try to avoid situations that might make me angry or snappy. If people are starting drama around me, I take out my DS and have quite 'me' time. :3

Have you tried Evening Primrose Oil?
It's just a vitamin like supplement that you can take that will help to even out your moods.
Look for it in the vitamin aisle in any pharmacy.

The pill made me less snippy, but more weepy; it was like trading one extreme for another. sweatdrop However, I got less snippy once I went from high school to college to, so I don't know if it was just the pill, but also social environment and lifestyle that effected it.
Cutting excess salts and sweets before your period may help. Although I tend to self-quarantine myself. I just hold up alone at home for awhile and do activities to chill me out and deal with my PMSing. However, this isn't always a practical option.

I don't, but then again I'm bipolar so I've learnt to deal with mood swings pretty well.
Just chill, ask your friends to tell you when your being moody, in a nice way of course.

Ah, the moodyness. I know it all too well. I've always been a moody person. It got worse when I started getting my period, as in, it wouldn't take much to make me start crying. As I got older, I started getting angry instead of upset (I'd rather be called a b1tch than a baby) Now, at age 20, I can't really do anything to stop the anger, but when I realize I'm pmsing or getting angry, I'll usualy apologize for whatever I've done (if anything) and warn those around me that I might get snappy.
Sometimes, I can get up and walk around, go outside and get some fresh air, or even just put on my headphones (my family has learned that headphones=danger)
Maybe you can learn some medatation or calming/centering exercixes. I also know that tea with chamomile in it can help (my favorite is called Tention Tamer)
I hope this helped .

I suggest midol and chocolate. razz
But really...I think the pill might help you. If you do decide to take it, give it some time. If it doesn't work out, try another brand there are many to choose from. I had to start taking the pill because I would get very depressed to the point of suicide right before my period. Very strange, and random..but it has helped me a lot. It could help you a lot too, I'd look into it.
