Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hello thanks for asking from HEALHT CARE MAGIC

You are 32 years with average weight and average height and have problems of suicidal ideas and symptoms like worthlessness, paranoid ideas, panic attacks, cramps in abdomen etc. As these symptoms are occurring mostly during ovulation period so probably hormonal changes are behind such symptoms. In premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) a lot of females develop such symptoms. Calcium, Vitamin B12 supplementation in most cases result in improvement but if symptoms persist then consultation of a psychiatrist is advised. Medicines like Duloxetine can help to reduce the symptoms exacerbation during ovulation period and will help in normal functioning. Visit a psychiatrist for prescription.

Thanks, hope this helps you. Take Care
