Two weeks a month! That's terrible! That's half your life! Did you always have bad PMS, or has it worsened with the medication you are taking to induce the "artifical period," as you so aptly term it? I found that certain kind of birth control pills made my PMS worse, and generic Provera was even more intense in its effects on my moods (and I've been on Prozac for 8 years).

Just a thought: maybe you could try switching pills?
