I was also emotional last night

Being emotional last night sounds like a total mood swing moment, and girl, I've been there! It's super common for feelings to get all big and overwhelming, especially when you're going through puberty or getting close to your period. Your hormones are literally having a party in your body, and sometimes that makes your emotions go wild.

It's like, one minute you're fine, and the next you're crying at a puppy video or getting super annoyed by something tiny. This usually happens because of those hormone changes, especially progesterone and estrogen doing their thing before your period starts. It's totally normal and a lot of people feel this way.

What to do about it

When you feel emotional, it's good to give yourself a break. Try doing something calming like:

• Listening to your favorite music
• Watching a funny show
• Drawing or journaling
• Talking to a trusted friend or grown-up about how you feel

Just remember that these big feelings are usually temporary, and they'll pass! It can be really helpful to track these emotional days in the Soso app, because over time you might start to see a pattern and realize these feelings pop up around the same time in your cycle. That way, you'll know what to expect and can be ready to give yourself some extra self-care.
