I used to get it, basically for the last two weeks every month I was depressed, felt worthless and felt like the ceiling of my life was crashing in on me. I'd bloat up a dress size too. It's like the worst form of PMT but it's for two weeks instead of a couple of days.
This is before it was recognised at all so I had to just stumble through life only having one good week (no period and no PMDD) week per month.
Any hormone pill involving progesterone made it worse as it's basically progesterone sensitivity.
I think these days they suggest the mirena coil to stop the natural cycle and replace it with a much smaller /more stable dose of progesterone, and add oestrogen.
I don't think there is much cure as all the time we have oestrogen and a uterus we need progesterone - either our own or, after menopause, replacement progesterone. If I'd understood it, or it had been understood, 20 years ago I would probably have asked for a hysterectomy after I had my children, so I could at least have led a normal life.
