Can't stop crying... hormones?

So I had an episode last night. I was very upset. inconsolable. racing thoughts that hurt my soul. Why does my mind work like this??...

I have been toying with the idea that I am hormonally imbalanced. Dont really know what that means. (if anyone has an experience please share)

Everyone has a little pms, but come on!

I am diagnosed with GAD but I think it has more to do with hormones than anxiety... perhaps the hormone imbalance is what causes the anxiety.

I tried orthotrycyclyn low (sp) once and it make me a loopy. I was crying at everything little good and bad thing that happened. I stopped it. So i think i need low estrogen... too scared to try that again. Ill do it soon tho

So if anyone can relate and has possibly found a solution or at least some coping strategies for pms, Help!

Racing thoughts is a symptom of anxiety.
The crying could be something else all together.
It could be hormones, or it could be possibly depression.
What were you upset over?

I think there is blood work your doctor can do to check to see what is normal and what isn't?

I've never dealt with an imbalance myself, perhaps you can google it?

I know exactly what you're talking about! I've also thought about hormone imbalances, but honestly I think it's most likely just a combination of GAD and natural hormones. I have been crying all week and it's ridiculous! Everything feels like it is so much worse than it is, and I can logically see that, but regardless I still cry my eyes out and hyperventilate for hours. I have GAD too, and it seems to me like it's a disastrous combination of the incessant worrying & emotions. Sometimes we're just more emotional at certain times than others. It's only sometimes that this happens, right? So it's probably just when you happen to feel stressed, or just emotional in general, even if you don't realize it. In combination with the constant worrying and thinking that we can't control, it isn't very hard to believe that it could cause uncontrollable crying.

I just read your entry and saw it was very old. Just wondered did you get any answers. My daughter is going just that uncontrolable crying question as to hormonal related. happens like 2 to 3 wks before menses. It has been going for a few yrs and they started her on antidepressants and anxiety meds nothing is helping very discouraged and need help
