A group specifically addressing Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder; severe emotional and physical problems associated with the menstrual cycle. A place where we can share our feelings during the tough times and different types of treatments. Moodswings welcome!
I have thought that Ive had PMDD for a while now.
I spoke to the DR about it around a month ago and she said it sounds as if I do.
Printed off a breif description of the disorder and things like eating healthier,keeping routines up etc taht may or may not help.
I'm fed up! I'm one week out from the period now and my emotions are all over the show! I'm taking medication to try and calm myself regularly and it's disrupting my life!
I'm taking time off work because I can't stop crying and had an argument with my partner due to amblified emotions which caused further destress.
Today I'm at home hoping that My Dr will release PRN medication a day early from my pharmcay so I can take it and cope with the severe emotional symptoms a little better!
I've also been getting spotting during ovulation and cramping which my dr said is normal however is also destressing for me!
I tried the whole diet and exercise thing and several types of supplements.
I hate the idea of taking an SSRI, but I'm desperate at this point. So I'm really hoping it helps.
Hopefully you can find something to help you out as well.
People often don't think pmdd is a real thing or "just pms" but they could not be more wrong.
It IS real.
It's painful.
And it's debilitating.
I hope you find relief soon.
