Bryony,
In general terms I've come to much the same conclusions about myself that you have put forward above.
The reason I said about a 6 month cycle, is that the first time it happened and I stopped PM, was about 5 months after I got my first growing pains... I stopped for 4 weeks and then started again after the 6th month. Then 5 months on from there I got the same urge to stop, which I actually did about a week ago. So far I feel no different, one way or another, and I'm waiting with some amusement to see if in 2 or 3 weeks time I get both the urge to dress and the need to take PM again!
If I have a choice, I'm kind of hoping that I can hold off the PM long enough to break the 'addiction' and simply enjoy what remains of what I've developed ( because I DO enjoy them). We'll see.
