The depression part is normal, the self mutilation part is NOT! If you are doing that you, or whoever takes care of you, needs to get you help. That probably means medication and counseling.

i've been depressed for a while and during my period, my emotions just go wild and if i don't watch out for certain triggers, my next week is ruined. I'd watch what sets you off, is it just your period,or do you let period the intense emotions from your period get to you?

Hey there, although the depression part does seem to be normal, the self mutilation is a symptom of your depression. I'd see my doctor if I was you! I too am suffering with depression when my period is due, I get to the point where I feel I would be better alone, no family! Deep down inside I know this not to be true!!! I'm seriously considering going to the docs, cos my marriage is failing because of this....Depression is not to be mocked! Don't think for a moment you are being silly because you are not, and how you feel is very very real!! Good luck babes! xxx
