Period. It enhances emotional sensitivity for you—it has to do with fluctuation in hormones which can impact your actions only if you let it. It happens due to various reasons—estrogen and progesterone play quite significant roles. Having mood swings is one thing, but if you do not control this as best as you can, and let it merge with the way you act and react as you float on autopilot, the results should be obvious—you ruining your mood further and even worse—your relationships. Period is not an excuse to not take control of yourself and practice self-discipline. It is okay not to feel okay, but when you don't control yourself and let it impact the way you act and react, it is your fault if you ruin your relationships. If you're not feeling alright, avoid communication and make it gently clear that you need time alone as due to your period you're not feeling alright. But when you let your mood swings dictate your actions, you damage, corrupt and only make things worse for yourself and others be it intentionally or unintentionally. Acting and reacting based on emotions instead of patience and knowledge brings about consequences, loss and regret. Take time alone, have a (dark) chocolate and spend time in a comfortable atmosphere and make your time productive. Remember, two minutes of harmful communication based on mixed emotions and mood swings can cause twenty years of damage which is obviously not worth it. Value your relationships before which you must value yourself by controlling yourself instead of letting your emotions control you. I understand the enhanced sensitivity you face, but it can be limited in the way you feel once you become habitual of not letting it interfere in your communication, actions and reactions. Try your best and it will become a habit. Remember, the tongue can cause damage which can ruin generations to come so you must discipline yourself to use your speech and communication—however it maybe, with manners, respect, love, patience and honor regardless of however you are feeling. Once you're used to this, you will cut down 95% of the threat which comes to ones life in context of speech based on mixed emotions.
