That's an amazing post, badkitty!
I suffer from HORRIBLE PMS and although I know how incredibly hard it must be to put up with me, I do expect/wish a certain type of behavior from my Dom. And what fetishdj said is basically what works for me:
Also, as he said, the symptoms got better when I was on the pill, but I don't want to deal with its side-effects (which are strong for me, affecting even my sexual drive).
Communication during PMS is seriously in danger and I try my best to avoid discussing ANY subject that has medium importance. If it can wait a couple of days, than I shut my mouth and wait. It's hard, it's taken years of trying and I haven't perfected it yet, but I'm really proud of myself afterwards.
I just focus on relaxing, doing something for the pain and blowziness and receiving all the caring I can. No punishment, no spanking and, most of all, NO ORDERS! Don't tell me what to do!!! lol
So yeah, your Dom seems to know what he is doing if you feel comforted by his dominance. I hope the next PMS will be easier and I also hope you can deal with your grief in a comforting manner too.
