I have suffered with PMDD for the last four years, however the last two years have been the worst. It has transformed me into some sort of monster- I am mean, nasty, find any reason to start a fight, cry uncontrollably, have major mood swings, and am profusely sad (whereas, I am usually happy, love to laugh and be with people).........among many more. I feel as though I am normal for 1.5 weeks and the other 2.5 I am Jekyll/Hyde and have seriously thought I might have bipolar for half a month, every month.
I was put on birth control, and it helped maybe a month and then stopped working. My doctor is very old-fashioned and told me it was nothing... This week I have experienced the worst of it, and it has slowly ruined my friendship with my best friend, as well as made it hard for me to maintain a job (I am only 20). I have been researching all night on every different possible way to help it. I have read every single post possible... The only thing I have found that seems successful and isn't a drastic measure (such as anti-depressants) is HTP-5 I am beginning to take them tonight and wish to update people on my progress as I'm hoping that it can help others who are skeptical on it. Any who have taken it, please comment and let me know how you liked it, etc. Every little while I will post a update so if you are interested in hearing about it, then please check back

Hang in there! I am 35 and have lived with PMDD since I was in my teens. 5htp can definitely help you, however, don't take it with any anti-depressants.
Also, keep an eye on the bc pills- for a lot of Women with PMDD, they can put us over the edge and make things even worse. Stef lifewpmdd.com |
