That's it really. Starts about 10 days before my period - exhaustion, feeling physically weak, feeling sleepy/confused, struggling and not managing things, sleeping a lot, nightmares, very very weepy and feel hopeless.
I already have mental health issues (currently not treated, am in the "not actively suicidal so meh" group to the NHS... currently fighting PIP appeal to pay for private help...) so I suppose that might be making it worse... but also it means I have a very reduced lifestyle already so it should be easier to deal with, but PMT reduces me further to just weeping in bed for the most part, between trying to manage normal things like shopping/cooking. (No DC.)
Just wondering if theres any treatment because going to GP about mental health stuff is so depressing and difficult as it is - I need to know what to ask for.
Oh also, I have endometriosis which I see a gynaecologist for now and then, have had two treatment laparoscopies. By an expert apparently. Pain is severe and tramadol isn't working, but one day of severe pain a month much easier to cope with than 10 days of severe depression. Just mentioning in case relevant.
Thanks
