I didn’t see an existing Lemmy community for PMDD and PME suffers, so I created this one.

This post is an optional place for you to introduce yourself and, if you like, tell your story as it relates to PMDD or PME. Personal stories are not restricted to this post, but it’s an easy, low-stakes way to get involved and connect with others.

Thank you for creating this community, I had hoped for one to pop up here on Lemmy.

I'm not diagnosed myself but I've many of the symptoms which tend to manifest about 2 weeks before the start of my period. I hate what it does to my mood, the lethargy it brings and the way I lose interest in many of the things that I like doing. It's so hard to cook or be around others and I swear I lose IQ points too. What I really would like is to manage this condition, so I can reclaim my life.
