Pmdd

Lately I’ve come to realise I think I suffer from pmdd, I’ve thought it the past few months and I write down how I feel upcoming to my period, nearly every time I write at least once that I don’t want to be here and that I hate myself, today I’ve felt the switch go again and just felt so tired and useless. I’m a total over thinker and I think when I’m not in the Lutheal face I can stop myself but when I’m in it the thoughts creep in, is this common? I’ll ruminate, I’ll google constantly, I just feel like I’ve lost myself, I hate me, any past mistakes I’ve made creep back in and I ruminate over them and they define me, but when I’m not in the lutheal phase I feel ok

I also get so upset about feeling left out from people’s lives, like literally I’m fine until I hit that phase and it feels like it brakes me

I hear ya! I have pmdd. Have you looked into antihistamines? And the pill to stop your period altogether ?

Sorry posted too soon. I meant to say I have started taking daily CBD tablets which has helped a bit but I still have to batten down the hatches and cancel all social engagements for those few days every month.
