Stop Blaming Mood Swings on My Menstrual Cycle

I need fellow uterus owners to be mad with me for a moment. Everyone needs to stop saying mood swings can a be a side effect or symptom of this because I get a damn near heart attack all the time. I’m super emotional right now so I think. “Well I’m 11 day from my period and 6 days from ovulating so it could be pms or it could be that I’m pregnant or it could be that I’m experiencing a normal human emotion or it could be my ADHD or my depression or a side effect of the 800 drugs I’m on.” And spiraling because of “mood swings” is so obnoxious.

This is pretty true, but so is that mood swings could be side effects. Some drugs make you a little sadder, or a little more bitchsly.. but all in all.. everything from sex to stupidity to coffee causes mood swings. Not just the bleeding and the drugs.
