so, it has come to my attention there is something wrong with me.
every month, the week AFTER my period, i go...crazy. i think thats the only word for it. why? because I don't know it's happening. I think I'm a fairly observant person when it comes to myself, esp. recently. I've been working hard trying to be 'better', by being conscious and aware of Egor (he's the jerk inside me who gets defensive and bitchy and aggravated and who pushes me to react negativly to those things that make me feel like that) I named him so I can call him on it. He's not who I AM.
any way...
So I've been conscious and I have, and Jason has, seen an improvement. Except for this one week a month when Egor 100% takes over. Like, apparently, I'll be upset about something, and Jason will call me on it, (like I've asked him to) and I'll snap back at him and deny I'm upset. Or it will be later, and he'll be telling me about it, and I won't know what he's talking about. Like, I'll remember the situation around it, but not my being angry.
so my conclusion is a. Jason is delusional.
or 2. I'm batshit crazy.
Now, the reason I don't think Jason is crazy, is because about 10 years ago my friend Dan asked me to tell him when I was on my period so he could tell the rest of our friends why I was being so horrible. It didn't click with me, because the in time frame he mentioned, I WASN'T on my period, OR PMSing (pre...). I'd like to talk to Nate, he's the only other long term BF I've had. I know he noticed stuff, but I don't remember what we talked about.
I also remember feeling paranoid around this time. like, feeling odd, and trying to figure out why, and making things up with people around me to make sense of it. hmmmmmmm.
I wonder what can be done. It's hurting Jason, and I have NO doubt I'll end up hurting our kids too. I don't want to be a horrible monster one day a week let alone a whole week.
so. I don't know what to do. I desperately don't want to go on meds.
