Monday morning comes, the day I have been dreading all weekend. First of all it doesn’t start too good. It is raining on my drive to work and half way there I realize I didn’t bring my badge to get into the building. I try calling someone I know who is in early like me but she is on her phone so I wait until someone will let me in. Fortunately my wait is indoors and not in the rain. Finally a woman looks at me odd but lets me in once I tell her where I work.
The cloud has lifted and I almost feel giddy. I, at first, credit the vitamin I took at home but then realized my period is almost here! That is it! I just fell, for the second month in a row, for a pre-menstrual depression/anxiety thing. If I can anticipate this every month and it only lasts for a few days, then I can deal with it and understand it and not get worried that I need meds or something.
