I know I’m late but, I have began taking herbs to curve the symptoms but I was like that until my husband and I nearly separated. Just irritated all the time. He was struggling because I was just mean and hormonal and unaware of what was happening to me. I knew that I loved him and that I never wanted to hurt him. I knew something had to change. All I can say is yes, she does need to be held accountable to seeking help. Yes, there is a diagnosis but that does not make it ok to treat her partner like trash. Every day must be lived with intent, PMDD or not. She needs to begin by being more intentional about finding ways to fill her cup when that time is approaching. She can’t give to others what she isn’t giving herself. What has helped me in HelloFresh meals (meal planning was too much) deep cleaning the house + laundry the week before my period and of course tracking my cycle. INTENT INTENT INTENT. Huge game changer. ❤
Firstly, thank you for sharing this. It's great to hear that you are having therapy. I am going to be cheeky and ask if you could help me with my research survey, considering you have had therapy... us21.list-manage.com/survey?u=281d3a76e3c34cf8fe6017a75&id=9b0bbac38d&attribution=false
I have PMDD and I snap on my boyfriend alot when im in my luteal phase, sometimes its because he tries to make things better by hugging me or holsing me when we lay down and i like my space during this time... so i think he should wait til she is in her normal phase of the month and then talk to her #1 about what she needs during the time of the month where her symptoms are bad and #2 let her know the seriousness of what her actions are doing to ur love for her, ur mental health and ur relationship and come up with a plan,,, if shes not willing to do this then maybe u should consider leaving
Hey, what is the forum? My partner has PMDD and i feel as though its destroying me now also. For her its 1.5 weeks of clarity to 2.5 weeks of emotional rollercoasting and violence.. for me now its just a sense of depression and not being good enough
I've known my wife for 20 years. She's great most of the time, her SPMs are mostly normal, but some of them are hell, I have left home many times just to put end to violence. She gets totally irrational, turns completely incoherent. She shows irrational jealousy. She aims most all of her anger to me, makes me doubt my own sanity, it affected my life hugely. We've lived like that all that time. Our daughter is witness of all this violence and suffers. It took me all this time to realise she may be suffering of PMDD. She's undiagnosed.
No chance! No matter how many different relationships she’ll have, she’ll always end up at the same place! The only difference is some men will want to work it out because he truly loves her and some men (especially more mature) will see red flags 🚩 straight off the bat and check out!
I once had a female doctor who had personally suffered from PMDD and ADHD - when I asked her how she overcame her PMDD she looked me straight in the eyes and said ‘I left my husband’. That comment has stayed with me for years!

It's a real relief to hear this as my partner has PMDD and I only just learned about what it is.
Hey Jason, thank you for sharing this! I hope all is well with you.

Thank you for adding awareness to PMDD. I am beyond saddened to have recently met a woman that suffers from PMDD and see her challenges and pain.
Hello Steve - thank you for your comment, it's appreciated. It's so great to have you here!
I have PMDD, however I make sure to still remain pleasant. I’ve learned how to maintain via threapy .

Loved this video ... can u read more of these?
Sometimes I wonder if PMDD is exacerbated by the anxiety of being in a relationship one subconsciously doesn't want to be in.

Possibly! Humans are complicated!
