yes, thinking is never a good thing.

Does anyone have 'obsessions'? or is that just a personality disorder   Today's obsession is 'soap' I just ordered 8 nice one's on line, I just suddenly wanted nice soap.

I have cornered the market in kitchen roll  . I keep forgetting how much I've got and buying more.
I also love new cleaning products ...how sad is that. I can't wait to get home and try them out. My cupboard under the sink is crammed full of stuff

I've always had OCD light as one of my PMS symptoms... I doublecheck myself on everything I do. Locking doors, switching off lights, etc etc...

Oh good not just me then 

I am a double checker on most things as is my daughter. Wonder where she got that from 

Not the first time I've made hubby turn back home so I can check on something

My very worst symptom of peri is a major worsening of tinnitus and a return of hyperacusis.
Since major onset of my peri symptoms this March, my tinnitus I was very comfy with got worse when my sleep became disturbed and then hyperacusis came back.
Now my life is living hell.

Thanks for all your posts ladies! Looks like we can add even more unusual symptoms to the list then!

* Obessions (SadLynda I get those attaching to weird things - usually bad. At least you'll be clean! Sparkle - loo rolls, I'd say that was good planning ha ha - can never have too many of those!).
* OCD (particular with 'checking', count me in on that).
* Tinnitus
* Burping
* Hyperacusis. Sarai, what is that?

I never allow my cupboards/fridge/freezer to get low of stuff.  That way I'm not backed into a corner to go shopping *today*! I also try to shop when the Store is less likely to be busy.  So you can take this hint on board which will lessen one symptom!

Anyone else like this with petrol? I have to fill up if it's less than 50% full, or else I get anxious. Drives my partner mad (excuse the pun) ! X

Hi Girls

I have a few to add:

Cobwebb feeling at the end of my nose
Sensation of being watched, hairs on arms would stand up and I'd get goosebumps
Smell and taste more prominent ( filtered water the worse can smell the lime scale before I even taste it) during period.
Panic attacks, a wave passes through my whole body causing a feeling of something terrible is going to happen.
Dry eyes,gritty and sore
Sudden movement of surrounds, like a tipping/ sliding feeling
Hot breath, feels like when you eat that menthol chewing gum
Lump in throat
Sore lumpy boobs
Brain fog
Tension heads( before period)

There's more ill post again in a minute as have to do lunch now!

Smokey - thankyou!

I get that 'hot breath' thing too!

Being watched .... that sounds creepy, but I know what you mean, I keep seeing things out of the corner of my eye, spinning round, then there's nothing there .... eek.

Hyperventilation syndrome - does anybody else have that?

[Sarai]

Unhinged Hyperacusis is extreme sensitivity to 'normal' sounds. The auditory system seems to be on red alert and sends a message that nearly all sound is too loud. So for instance the kettle, passing traffic, pots being loaded into dishwasher, peoples voices. The list is endless. They have no idea why it happens, but some believe stress, anxiety, depression. There is no cure as there is no illness to cure. You have to just wait and make sure you constantly hear low level sound to build up tolerance again.
In my case noise turns my tinnitus up.

[Unhinged]

Thanks very much Sarai, sensitivity to sound is one of my symptoms too - I didn't realised it had a name! So thankyou

Hi back again

Anxiety I shake when I'm at docs or hospital,I didn't notice it until my hubby pointed it out!
I wouldn't leave the house on my own I was scared, but not sure what of!
Hot glows and cold sweats
Heartburn
Skin sensations, like cold water is being poured on you same place on buttock
Fatigue
I seem to feel not quite right most days(but could be my ms)
Moods
Crying bouts first  day of period
Making mountains out of molehills ( every thing worse than it is)

My God I didn't realise there was so many, now I'm on Hrt not so many!!
Plus point sex is so much better!

just told DH about Hyperacusis - that I am not just bonkers after all, I have been like that for years, that is why I need headphones to go shopping.  I never knew it had a name, or was an actual condition.
