That journal idea is a good one. I always thought that keeping a journal about my life in general was enough for this purpose, but I really never nailed down what caused my moodiness at different times. It took me a long time to notice my depression because I kept blaming the symptoms on PMS... until it got really obvious. Anyway, my doctor also recommended the B-complex to me when I was having really bad PMS. Since I'm so small, they also recommended evening primrose oil, which apparently increases estrogenic activity, as an alternative to switching to pills with a greater hormone content.
