I remember being at a pub listening to some music with my buddies and suddenly becoming so overcome with emotion that I had to run outside (where nobody could see me) and started to cry my heart out. And I'm not some kind of namby-pamby tender guy, at least not openly--I was raised with a "big boys don't cry" type philosophy. But every time they dropped me another 5mg I would suddenly become a big blubbering baby until my body readjusted.

Then all of a sudden, for no reason at all, my temper would flare and I'd get angry at the world. Somebody would say something I didn't like and I'd jump all over them about it and make a huge scene for no good reason.

Ladies: is this what PMS is like???
