    Thank you for helping me not feel alone with this. Every month I start panicking when I feel the PMDD coming on because I’m terrified of my own thoughts and fear the overwhelming dread building. It’s as though I’m not myself and I can’t control what comes over me. I just want to be able to sleep until it’s over. I’m ashamed and hope no one sees me during this time. I don’t want my daughter to remember me as this humiliating person that takes me over one week each month. This suddenly started as I became perimenopausal and I continue to struggle every month to figure out how to make this stop. I don’t feel like anyone understands how crazy and mentally I’ll I feel when I try to explain. I can’t believe how little this is spoke about. So thank you for going n youtube with your story and thank you for saying just wait one more day because you are right, it usually does pass. We just need someone to believe us with a hug and tell us to hold on, it WILL be ok.❤️

      ❤ i came on youtube in search of wanting to understand this better to help my partner through it. I want be with them for the rest of my life i love them very very deeply. My partner is the first person that i had ever heard of this disorder from. And i am 38yrs old. This should be made a normal investigation at the GP for all people from the moment of their first period to starting perimens.

      I explain it this way I feel out of control, like so many emotions at once like I’m going to explode.

    What a difficult but important speech! Thank you! I'm so sorry you've been through it.
    It's such a relief to know it isn't me. I've been trying to take control of it, my therapy sessions help all the days except those 4-6 prementrual days. On those days it's like it isn't me, I am extremely fatigued, hypersensitive, depressed, I can't speak. I understand tomorrow is the next day, it always passes, but sometimes it's really unbearable, it's a torture. When I try to explain how I feel, I don't know how to do it, because ithose symptoms don't sound serious or as torturing as they feel. Yet there is hope.

    Thankyou so much for sharing your story Suzi, you have no idea how much your words mean to me. I am struggling with this conditions for years now and it's impossible for me to find doctors, therapists or psychiatrists who believe me. I am losing hope day by day, because there is literally no help. Hearing you talking about your experience makes me feel a lot less alone. I hope it will find a way to stay.
    Thankyou for your wonderful work !
