Yes!! A couple days ago I felt so sick — had chills, felt weak, exhausted, stuffy nose, and ended up sleeping most of the day in my cozy bed. Next day I was fine! This happens every month too

Yes - I get this the days before my period. I take an herb called vitex to help regulate my cycle and reduce symptoms. When I exercise more, eat less sugar/processed foods/caffeine, my symptoms are less severe. I don’t get fevers, but get hot flashes.

Does it bother you when someone you care about won't let you treat them (like on special occasions such as birthdays and stuff)? I don't know why it's upsetting me so much, and I'm trying to figure out what the root of my issue is. I'm getting overly emotional about it. It makes me feel like I'm making it about me vs. them, which is not what I want to do at all. On the contrary, I want them to enjoy whatever I treat them to, but this is all backfiring because I can't control my emotions.
