It is about time woman sharing this problem have been
finally heard. I am 33 years old and have been suffering from pmdd for about 9 years. It seems to me that it gets worse with time. I once said to my husband, if I felt as bad as I do one week out of the month I would for sure comitt suicide. I was quite serious. The only thing that stops me from killing myself during that time is the fact that I know it is a temporary state and will subside when my period begins. It is a very lonly feeling...an isolation beyond imagination. I need either a cure or an exorcism. I say that with all seriosness. I have made a doctors appointment, however I am afraid that my phycician will not take me serious enough as he hasn't in the past. I know that my symptoms are much more severe than most of my peers. How do I convince my doctor that I desparatly need treament. I don't want to hear about exercise and diet and vitamins anymore. Pmdd this severe requires a strong drug not a new lifestyle. How can I convince my doctor?Terri
