My period started when i was 12, and i know that most girls grow alot when it starts, then again around my age, but Aside from all of teh weird pains from growing, my period is being wierd.

Up untill a month or two ago, i had a big appetite during my period, but none right befor it. Now, im fine untill a day or two befor it starts, (aside from cramps comeing early, which Also never happened befor), but after it starts i have to Force myself to eat almost Anything.

is it normal for my period symptoms to change that way, and that much? its like i got someone elses period, and someone else took mine, almost everything i was used to changed, i.e. being sleepless the night (befor) it start.

I would say that it is normal. Your body is still growing and changing. Some females periods are by the books and others are different. I wouldn't worry about it too much unless it becomes a problem. Sometimes when I have my period I don't want to eat all all, other times all I want is chocolate. Sometimes I want to eat everything. I have also had my cramp come early, so do my sisters.

That is pretty rude. Sometimes people are just plain mean. Try not to let them bother you and maybe even have a sense or hummor about it. When i just started college I had people all the time ask me if I was anorexic. They think it is a compliment. It is not. i ate all the time, just had a high metabolism. People never ask that now, must be fat :-) Nah, just healthy. ;-)
