A few days before my period I get REALLY anxious. I alsoo get extrememly hungry a day or two before I get my period and the whole time I have my period. It is an unsatisfied hunger. I could eat and eat and never feel full. Does anyone else ever feel like this?

You bet! Plus I had a hysterectomy many yrs. ago (one ovarie left) and still have that anxious feeling about 3-4 days in a row each month. Strong hunger too! I don't get it and I forget why the anxiety but that's the way it is.Crave more salt/sweets at that time also. Oh, it's such fun being a woman!

Add me to the list on this one! I agree with Barb, isn't it such fun to be a woman?! We may have to deal with these things but our husbands in turn have to deal with us.

I am with you. Except the anxiety seems worse around my ovulation time. I don't know why. Some days I feel like I could eat a horse! I crave salty mostly. And I have some really good days in the month too. I am married to an angel. God knew I would need someone like that. Praise God for His wisdom and not mine!!

I would like to chime in that in fact I am going through this annoying fit of hunger right now. I eat but within minutes I have to tell myself over and over "you've had enough -- you may not feel like it but your stomach is full of food so go do something constructive and stop eating and/or thinking about eating." It is the weirdest thing to eat and then realize that your brain "didn't get the memo." Ha Ha.

Yes, and a glass of water seems to help a little.

I'm eating oatmeal right now! Oatmeal doesn't even stick with me...I get SO hungry. I get a bit nauseous sometimes too and have stomach problems in the first couple days of my period also. Being a woman is no fun...at least not for like a week a month.

I get more anxious. and right now i'm about to eat some chips because I crave sweet and salty around this time. I make sure to only eat a little though.

Yes Carla, I have the same problem. Some of my biggest cravings are for pizza, french fries and chocolate.
