Is it PMS or a Trauma Trigger?
Every month about 5 days before my period I am always crying, very emotional, have anxiety and am in panic mode, I am so angry at a lot of things. It is just torture and draining and exhausting.
I have been working hard to clean out a section of the basement so I can put some of my belongings in, because I have them in a storage unit that I'm going to stop paying for. I made a section in the basement nice and neat and threw away lots of my old stuff to make room. Yesterday, I noticed my uncle brought his stuff and put it in that section that I cleaned. My brother who owns the house had let him put his stuff there.
I started freaking out and panicking and got an anxiety attack and started crying and screaming cause I had worked so hard to clean it, threw my old stuff away to make room, was using that area because I need to stop paying for storage cause I have been financially struggling and down want to get into a financial situation I cannot get out of, but now his junk is there in that spot.
This situation triggered something in me. I don't know if it was a trauma trigger cause my whole life my parents had financially struggled sometimes making it hard to get food but always made it work somehow cause they'd get help from family members, or I don't know if it was my PMS just starting up cause Im expecting my period to come next week.
What do you think happened to me? A trauma trigger or PMS? Either way how can I help myself. My brain or mind also just feels out there.
