Sucidial thoughts before period
I some times feel like cutting my hands. This happens mostly a week or so before my period. But I never tried to do it. Flashes of blood oozing out of my body keeps coming into my mind. I even cry a lot during that time. My work is very stressful, not sure if this is because of that. Recently, I have given a blood sample for Vit D3 and HB tests, Doc asked me to get these to evaluate my headaches, its migraine. One thing I noticed is I liked it when blood is being drawn from my body, Is this normal?

The underlying theme of your complaints is relief from stress whenever you see blood. That is because most of us perceive loss of blood as a loss of vitality. Your fantasy of self harm is being manifested in these various forms. You will need to be initiated on a class of medications called Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors. I recommend consulting a Psychiatrist for the same. Good luck.
