Can someone who’s been diagnosed tell me a bit more about it?

I’ve been trying to get some form of diagnoses and help for a while and I’m getting fobbed off here, there and everywhere.

My PMS is hell on earth. Sore boobs, absolutely inability to do anything at all, I’m a bumbling mess who can’t string a sentence together. It’s like my brain stops working. Nausea, but stomach, some period pain for around a week before it starts, intense sugar cravings and insomnia.

and then the usual anxiety, irritability and tearfulness. I do have anxiety and a bit of depression at times generally, but it’s always heightened in the two weeks before my period, the few days before being hell.

it’s bad each month but I would say every 3 I get a ‘whopper’ when the PMS is just awful.

anyone have any advise? I would love to be taken seriously but I have been told by professionals over the years that how I feel is ‘normal’.
