Then please explain it to me properly Mr Johnson
It’s so embarrassing when I’m going through a mental breakdown and then my period shows up.
It feels like the Scooby Doo meme where Fred pulls off the monster’s mask and underneath there’s a rich white man but instead it’s untreated PMDD.
Like ah, yes. Once a month Blood Madness takes hold and suddenly I’m hyperventilating in my closet trying to talk myself down from making a rash and irreversible decision as my brain burns itself to the ground in response to hormonal fluctuations.
By the by, if this is at all relatable to you, that’s not normal. That is potentially a thing called Premenstrual dysphoric disorder. It’s listed in the DSM-5 as a depressive disorder. And your life doesn’t have to be like this.
I’m in a nightmare position where the medications that can help with PMDD make my complex immune disorder issues worse.
But there is treatment for PMDD. It might be hard to access at first because it primarily affects people with a period, but keep fighting until someone takes you seriously and helps you.
Please. Do it for me if you can. It’ll make me feel better talking about this to know it helped other people not suffer.
“You're the only one who can hold your head up high
Shake your fist at the gates saying
"I've come home now!"
Fetch me the Spirit, the Son, and the Father
Tell them their pillar of faith has ascended
It's time now
My time now
Give me my
Give me my wings!”
