I don't have to deal with that time of the month for another......well until it decides to start up again b/c I'll be nursing a baby for a while.
Last time I did that I was free for 19 months. (you know 40 weeks well actually 41 weeks and 5 days gestationally and 9 months while nursing) free of that time of the month.

Birth control is, like, the best thing ever! I feel... free... from a lot of the pain I was going through. (Some of it could only be corrected through surgery, but PMS and such B/C handles.) I'm so glad you eventually got a point where you could be freed from the worst of your symptoms! I truly understand how great that is!

My mother was the same way, but maybe I am luckier than you in that the only symptoms I got were bad diarrhea, vomiting, profuse sweating, mood change/irritability and usually a mild headache and/or backache. I didn't get all the other symptoms along with those, like food craving and cramps and the like. I didn't have insomnia, I don't think, the only reason I didn't sleep that first night each time was because I was in the bathroom all night. My mother not letting me use it as an excuse prepared me for later on when I had jobs that did not have paid sick leave. I would go to work anyway that day and only leave early once the diarrhea and vomiting got too frequent for me to actually do my job. I wish I'd been able to ask for that day off but I never knew how many weeks I'd have before my cycle decided to randomly start over.
But anyway, I did eventually get a job that not only had paid sick leave, but I could afford healthcare which means I finally saw a doctor and am medicated for it now. I haven't had to stay home from work since. I love modern medicine.
The two worst symptoms were the headaches/migraines and the sleep disturbances. I could accurately predict when my period would come based on these two symptoms alone: one night of insomnia, one night of over sleeping, and then 6 hours before I started bleeding the mother of all awful headaches. I'd be unable to move for 6 hours because the pain was so severe. Then, BOOM, blood.
To be truthful, PMS was..... was... tolerable. My major problem was that it was in conjunction with my endomtriosis. It caused my periods to be intense and painful, and I got them every 2 weeks! Then, if that wasn't bad enough, I also had throbbing/stabbing pains where my ovaries where after my period ended for a week. (And later as things got worse, my uterus thought it'd be a good idea to congeal itself to other organs nearby. TOTALLY NOT COOL.) So, basically, once a month I was a pain free "normal" feeling person.
Birth control is, like, the best thing ever! I feel... free... from a lot of the pain I was going through. (Some of it could only be corrected through surgery, but PMS and such B/C handles.) I'm so glad you eventually got a point where you could be freed from the worst of your symptoms! I truly understand how great that is!
