Monthly Cycle Blues

So, I have an issue.
While I know that exercise reduces PMS symptoms such as cramps and the like, I just have the hardest time EVER working out while on my period. I always end up eating less than my 1,200 calories and generally spend a lot of time depressed.
Does anyone else have this problem? And how do you combat it?

    I have a similar problem, I cry at everything and i hold all my water so i feel super bloated and feel guilty at eating absolutely anything :(
    Sorry, that i can't offer a solution but misery loves company right?

    I have the opposite reaction. I can't eat enough. if i'm sick, depressed whatever it's all getting eaten and constantly.
    hasn't happened yet this month though, so i'm doing really well :)

    Whats wrong with you guys!? I love my period because it means I can still have babies :3 and babies are cool!
    Plus I always felt like it was a new start, like the beginning of a new month or season.
    and BABIES!!!! xD
