PMS can be scary! I have mercifully and happily been spared that particular affliction, but I have a longtime dear friend, Judy, who becomes like devil-woman for five or so days each month. It's scary for her family, and it's hard on us, her friends. I know it can be very bad at times. I've seen it and felt the wrath! She's truly like another person. We're hoping she'll reach menopause early. . . .Fortunately, most people who have it have fairly mild symptoms.
