mood swings

i try and tell my boyfriend that i am going through a lot of changes and i cannot control my emotions some times, he doesn't believe me and says that i need to just deal with it better, how do i cope with these wild emotions and how he treats it all like a joke no matter what I say?

roksy,  then stop it for awhile.  Literally,  stop saying critical angry things.  Really,  just say nice things for two days and see how it goes.  

You can do this.  Really.  For two days,  say sweet things.  

I've been married for 35 years.  You can say sweet things for 2 days and see where that leads you.

Best wishes.

I try to only talk about my feelings with my husband when I am not upset. So sometimes it takes a day or two for me to bring something up that I want to talk about because if I am already upset and then try to talk emotional stuff I turn into a giant mess. I also make sure to thank him for being so patient and supportive when I m feeling good and hopefully that makes up for when I m busy riding the emotional roller coaster.

You can control your behavior.  You may not be completely in control of your feelings and emotions,  but you can control your behavior and that's what counts.

I think since you know you are having wild emotions,  just make the mental note to put a filter on your words,  and your actions when you begin to feel angry.
