female question?

Date: January 23, 2007 05:47PM PMS right before and around period time seems to be a commonly shared experience among women. And I have it to, pretty bad I guess, but NOTHING at all compared to what I get when I ovulate. My severe PMS is a cake walk compared to my 2-3 hours long ovulation episode. I am normally pretty chilled out, slow to anger, always try to see the positive in stuff, totally cool under stress. But right smack in the middle of my cycle, I will become venomously angry, and suicidally sad. It lasts no more than 2-3 hours, then I'm back, like Persephone from the underworld.
Does anyone else freak out during the luteal surge, or does everyone else in the world have the standard "appropriate" time PMS? I was 80% raw for 5 months, 50% from Thanksgiving to the New Year, and have been 100% in 2007 and plan to stick with it. Has raw cleared up this kind of thing for anyone? How long does it take? I keep reading about people who have been raw a couple weeks and have these amazing curative experiences. I have had no such success. And before you suggest green juices could someone please define this for me, and how to make it potable? I had a good one with apple juice in it, but I try to avoid too much fruit sugar as I am insulin resistant. So I eat mostly nuts, seeds, avocados, coconut butter, mushrooms, cacao, and yacon syrup. For some reason I just do not like the taste of fruit. It vibrates to high or something, too tart and tangy and light. If I am not hungry, and eat a piece of fruit, I will actually become hungry. I feel like I need weight to my food or I can't keep it down. Actually, I post what I eat every day on my site [www.powderbluedeath.com]. Whoa, guess I kind of got off topic there, but then again, maybe there's something I'm doing wrong that could help. Re: female question?

Date: January 23, 2007 05:59PM Thinking about it further...
Aside from the acute episode, the whole rest of the month (which is never a neat two weeks, it always drags out to three or sometimes four, which is a sign of something wrong I'd say), I am more likely to pick fights with my husband, be annoyed by everything, point out the faults in everyone, tell people I never want to see them again, etc. And the first two weeks (which are always a perfect Swiss watch timed scant two weeks), I am the exact opposite, almost the point of being entirely numb to my feelings except for the occasional cacao induced euphoria. I read somewhere that in the later part of our cycle we are actually more in touch with our real feelings. I used to consider my later half personality a monster witch, I guess because my ego doesn't want to see my "actual" self that way. But could it be true? I feel like the movie "The Three Faces of Eve", I'm living the first two personalities of the movie, somewhere there's gotta be Eve 3, the real integrated one? Re: female question?

Date: January 28, 2007 12:25PM I have recently been having tremendous PMS (Paleo Diet) that is one reason I am searching for a new diet. Pain ranges from body aches to crawling out of my skin. . I am lethargic, suicidal and agressive. I ahve found relief with an indian herb ashwaganda root or extract. Good luck Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
