My periods are getting worse and more painful. My mom does not want me to be put on birth control. But ever since my periods have gotten heavier and more painful she told me the next time I do to a doctors visit to mention it and we what the options are. That was about a month ago. I am currently on my period and it’s more heavy than painful this time. Is it normal for periods to become more intense as you get older or should I be worried. I also noticed that I am even more moody and emotional. I was never this bad. I cried this morning because I was all alone in my house. I have never had this problem with being alone before. I have been left alone in the house since I was 7 and I was fine. I’m 19 and I know that my emotional and mental state is really fucked up right now and I’m going to therapy for it but I think a lot of it has to do with my parents and them blatantly ignoring these past three days. I and living with my parents and doing online college but I am thinking of going on campus next year because I think that they are a massive part of my mental health failing. I can no longer talk to them without feeling like I’m going to get screamed at or making them annoyed. I also realize that I am part of the problem but I just try to stay out of there way. The problem with that is that I stay in my bedroom when they get home because they act like the my hate my existence but then they get mad when I don’t socialize with them. It really confuses me. This has all started and gotten worse after a massive family incident and fight. My mom and I talk a few weeks after and I thought that things were getting better but she is so confusing. I realize that my thoughts are all over the place but I could really use some advice on a lot of things going on and how to deal with my parents.
