I  just joined this group today.  Most of the posts I see say deleted users. I guess this isn't a very popular group, LOL. 

 I was diagnosed with PMDD several years ago, though I knew something was wrong since I was a teenager.  I felt like I had more difficulties 1 or 2  weeks before my period than most of my friends. It has affected my mental health severley.  For years I ended up in the mental hospital every 1 to 2 months and I could not figure out why my time of the month would just happen to appear while I was in the hospital  and after a couple of days I was miraculously  has no symptoms and was able to go home.

 PMDD is a huge struggle for me. I have tried many things such as birth control pills (many types), antidepressants, hormones,  Implanon implant, and etc.  somethings have helped a little, somethings haven't helped at all, and somethings actually have made my PMDD worse.  I am going through PMDD now and all I know to do is just fight through it. But I am very frustrated!!!
