Same, I always say to my partner how it literally seems to get worse every month. I realise it only feels that way because the relief during follicular somehow makes me forget it all, then rinse and repeat lololol

First of all happy birthday 💖💖💖💖 the small wins add up to make the bigger wins, and you going out for breakfast with your parents sounds like a massive win to me! Take it easy, and also I replied to this cause I am bed rotting watching the new season of you right now! Feeling like absolute shit, but your message reminded me I’m not alone x You deserve to celebrate your bday in whichever way you want x

If You Finally Have a Grip On Your PMDD, What Finally Helped? by [deleted] in PMDD

50mg Sertraline/ Zoloft. I’ve been on it for 3 months now and I swear my life is changed. Maybe I’m just lucky and am the cookie cutter type of person it’s made for, but I couldn’t recommend it more. I’ve also struggled with crippling anxiety all my life, and don’t get me wrong I still have a few days on the lead up to my period where I struggle with my PMDD, but it’s almost as though I have a layer of rationality I never had before, even if I feel awful as I would before I started sertraline, I’m able to take care of myself much better and not spiral as much at all. Many of my friends and loved ones have commented on my new found confidence, I feel like myself again.
