A friend once said to me "you just have to get through the next ten minutes" and it's now my rolling mantra.

This is so apt - I’m going to share with my husband because he doesn’t like to hear when I’m thinking these things, but it’s important he knows where I am. I think he receives it better than when I tell him. Thank you for your vulnerability <3

Thank YOU for reading. I hope it helped sharing with your husband. It's so difficult, my husband struggles too, he has a good understanding as much as anyone can when they don't have the condition themselves. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy but I do wish it was easier to explain ❤️

Thank you so much for sharing this. I'm so glad that content like this is out in the world. As someone with PMDD, it's shared experiences like this and hearing how people have learned to live through the worst moments that have helped me go on. I started an essay series on navigating life in a cyclical body that has PMDD. I would love to support each other on here! <3
