Yeah, sounds like you either have mommy issues or really need to get laid. Or possibly both.
As to the whole hormonal thing... The key to it is self-awareness. About a year ago I was taking this fertility medication which turned me into an angry, raging, psychotic hormonal monster. But my rational mind knew it was just the effect of the drugs, and I never allowed myself to get swept away with it and consider those feelings as real. I got to a point where I was able to become quite detached from it and observe how I was feeling almost in a scientific way. The people around me unfortunately didn't fare quite so well, as I couldn't resist the urge to make myself feel better by taking it out on them sometimes. But generally I was able to control the feelings rather than letting them control me. And that's advisable to anyone in any situation, not just women on their period.
