Body Confidence

Does anyone ever feel extremely bad about your body at any point in your cycle?
The week before and sometimes the week of my period, I feel so bad about my body/appearance that I feel like it's borderline body dismorphic. I try on a million outfits feeling disgustingly fat in all of them until I give up. It's so bad sometimes that I cry or call in sick to work so I don't have to be seen. Disclaimer: I do tend to have body confidence issues occasionally but never to the point that PMS brings me to. Also, I'm logically aware that I'm not actually overweight (5'1", 115lbs) but that does not help at all when I'm overwhelmed by these feelings during PMS.
