Hi All,


I am interested in knwoing if someone is aware of any support groups for PMDD. 


This disease has made my life a living hell. I feel like Im a different person. For sometime the combo 


of meds I was on were helping and as Im a couple days away from my period I feel like a wreck. 


Thank you.

I wish I did! This is the first type of support place that I’ve found. Maybe talk with your doctor?

Hey I’ve recently been learning of my condition but I’ve found taking my vitamins (fish oil) (5htp) (primrose oil) and changing my eating patterns have really helped me a lot!! I have talked to a therapist also n that helped I hope this helps you because it’s not much research on this disorder

There isn’t much research! It’s frustrating! I’ve heard (but haven’t tried) that protesterone treatment helps. I did the fish oil, multivitamin, magnesium, and flax seed oil and didn’t see any results. I got back on Effexor (anti-depressant) and that has changed my world! I think discussing your specific. Symptoms will help your doctor find the right treatment for you individually. Mine was latgely depression, suicidal ideation, and intense mood swings. So the anti-depressant really helped those symptoms.
