PMDD - Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder- HELP!!
Does anyone have experience w it?
I think this is becoming a thing for me but I'm not really sure.
To sum it up, I was diagnosed w depression over a year ago and was steady on the antidepressants for a while. They helped greatly, but myself and my doctor agreed that we thought it was due to environmental/ life stressors and temporary. Life changed for the better and I weaned myself off appropriately w the help of my doctor over 6 months ago. I've seemed fine and things have been... normal. 🤷♀️
10 days ago I enjoyed a fantastic weekend w my kids. We walked the park, learned how to ride bikes, I took joy in a fantastic weekend w my amazing kids.
This week though, I've been stressed, extremely tired, depressed, irritable as hell, I'm currently crying in bed and I'm not sure why. Feeling hopeless beyond repair and im due to start my cycle in 2 days. The extreme differences freak me out alone thinking of bipolar disorder but I found articles on PMDD. I want to see if my symptoms improve w my cycle but it looks like I need to start my antidepressants again.
If anyone has any info, experience, or tips, PLEASE HELP. I just wanna go back to enjoying my life w my kids. 😭😭😭
