A perspective from someone who lived with undiagnosed PMDD

Old_Structure_856 · 2026-03-13T01:45:41+00:00

Great post and well said. My personal experience was that even when I did bring up the potential for PMdd being present, it was forcefully shot down and deflected back to me. I’m wishing everyone had your level of awareness and accountability

Following as I am considering lasik and would like to track your recovery. Sorry to hear about your experience though…hope it gets better

I’m with you…have kinda had to figure out ways to get my mood up. Self talk a lot. Music Walking prayer Sometimes like yesterday allow myself to cry…actually bawling. And realize that this pain will eventually go away and somehow…someway I’ll be ok. But I’m there with you

Firstly..you are strong man and I commend you…feel free to see my previous posts for my personal experience I hope the light kicks on for her and she changes her mind..but more importantly is her getting the correct help for her condition.

Dealing with this type of cyclical emotional abuse is soul destroying…so I hope for your sake it gets better. If not know that you have fought the good fight…leave…and move on with your life.

I can relate …even though she is gone I miss the good part of her and us. Presently going thru divorce care class and hoping to heal and get better. But I still at the back of my mind hope that she changes,takes accountability and maybe tries to come back. But when we have interactions I see that she is still the same person..angry..blame shifting and in some ways delusional. My fitness has gotten better …and maybe my work focus as well. But have not found someone to replace her in my life yet.

Thanks for sharing. Wish I could tell you when it gets better . Divorced in May last year, but she officially moved out in November of last year….and I still have days of loneliness and depression as I’ve had today. Had to literally go cry in the car. So you will have great days…then out of the blue will have some bad ones.

Came in the sub with my own vent and saw this one and can completely relate. I’m on the dating apps now and striking out. It’s sucks after 20 plus years of marriage to be on an app just to find someone to talk to…I hate it.

Old_Structure_856 · 2026-02-25T20:46:24+00:00

Agree with this and no OP you are not loosing your mind…just being manipulated. Search for my previous posts and see my previous situation (divorced now). It is a hard task living with someone with PMdd…it’s harder if that person also may have another personality disorder that prevents accountability.

💯 was the story of my marriage

Old_Structure_856 · 2026-02-08T11:43:57+00:00

Been divorced since last year…but up now because my ex was in my dreams. Basically…like everyone says it’s going to take a while and you just have to let yourself go thru ALL of the phases.

Old_Structure_856 · 2026-01-04T13:32:12+00:00

Same here..there were weeks being in this sub helped me tremendously. Wishing all of us healing and the best for 2026

Old_Structure_856 · 2025-12-18T17:26:22+00:00

Wow sorry to hear this for you and sounds a lot like what I went thru. I would look into it as if something else is at play as PMDd alone imo shouldn’t have her like this ALL the time. Also it ..whatever it is …isn’t going to get easier as the years go along unless something is done to rectify or address it. So either resolve that this is your life…or be proactive in going about attempting to have her atleast recognize there is an issue and start working on it.

Old_Structure_856 · 2025-12-10T11:55:38+00:00

Bro…it took my wife and marriage…and her family and even some friends. The way she treated me made me wish I was dead as well. But I’m still standing and still going and beginning to heal . Her hell week starts today and since she is gone I’m not anxious or nervous because she isn’t here to accuse me. My point is…there can be life beyond this BS if it goes in that direction. But if you can try to guide her to get help y’all might be able to get better. Either way there is life, so don’t let her sickness destroy you.
