Hello everyone. I wondered if anyone has had CBT or another psychological treatment for PMT? I get depressed, irritable, anxious for up to two weeks a month. I had a referral for psychological services but had a few good months when I was managing to control it with diet, exercise and meditation etc. and cancelled it. But this month has been horrible and I've been thinking about suicide, leaving my family etc. I feel that my life is intolerable (it isn't, usually I am very happy), that whenever someone speaks to me I want to scream, that I can't bring myself to do anything, and feel disgusted with myself all the time.
I don't know what to do. I was on sertraline over Christmas but found the side effects too difficult and came off it. I don't like the pill. I am thinking about finding a private counsellor or referring myself to psychological services again because am finding things very hard at the moment and just hoping my period comes soon.
