background

I suffer from PMS for about 7 days before my period. I am 46 and use condoms for contraception as the pill made me very depressed and I stopped taking it 24 years ago. My main symptoms are anxiety and panicky waves, irritability. I feel light headed and shaky and have mood swings. My periods are still regular. I have recently started taking complex b vitamins that have helped with my tiredness and also the herb Milk thistle in a tincture format for my liver's health (as I drink alcohol most evenings before bed.) I have started some meditation and also go out walking more regularly. What can I do?
