Hey guys! I know this is a little different than the type of videos I normally make, but I think that no matter who you are, if you're a human on planet earth you have at some time dealt with anxiety, depression or if you're a woman - PMS - and PMDD is an extension of PMS that can cause significant problems in one's life.
Today I'm sharing with you how PMDD affects me and the things that have truly helped me to not only cope with it but live my best life with it.

I loved this video! I feel the same way about Alcohol! When i started working out and doing hot yoga regularly i started to hate the feeling Alcohol gave me.

@thesimplechiclife Год назад

Absolutely. These days I can tolerate a couple ounces of a nice dry white wine as an occasional thing but I wouldn’t want any more than that or on a regular basis.

OMG this has literally been the biggest hindrance upon my entire life. I thought I was bipolar. I thought I was crazy but no, it’s PMDD

@ClaudiaM-rc3zd 25 дней назад

Me too I was diagnosed and medicated... Now that I'm not on meds. I understand that pms is every month and for me 3 days before are the worse. Other days I'm really ok...

@mariansmartt Год назад

Such an educational video. I had PMS/PMDD for many years. Not much was known about it nor help available. I’m a completely new person now that I have gone thru menopause! It’s so important to so many women to have a video like this that is educational, supportive and hopeful. You did a great job!❤️❤️❤️

@thesimplechiclife Год назад

Thank you:) I’m glad you feel like a whole new person and yes it’s incredible how much we are affected by our hormones.

@leul2475 4 месяца назад

I wish my menopause to be soon.

@Chronicillnessclub Год назад

This is such a great video, I know during my pmdd days I suddenly want to make all these huge life decisions, not a good idea

@thesimplechiclife Год назад

Yes I’ve been there. Stay strong 💗 save those decisions :) write them down and make yourself a promise to come back to them later. The problems won’t go away in a few days, but in a few days you’ll be better equipped to deal with them. 💕

@cindy5688 Год назад

Unfortunately my extreme fatigue and social isolation during this week stops me from going to the gym. I go the other three weeks but maybe something I can do indoors like yoga would help during PMDD week for me. 🤷🏻‍♀️

@rdwrer1331 Год назад

Exercise DVDs have been my lifeline. They're happy and smiling and sometimes I feel like they help lift me up and I can laugh and smile with them. There are for sure a few days a month I don't smile with them cuz life is SO impossible with pmdd but I PUSH THROUGH and tell myself to keep moving keep moving.

@JabouJ. 2 месяца назад

My PMDD has started after I went through abusive narcissistic relationships. Too much trauma messed up my hormones.

@learning2fly504 3 месяца назад

@vidamar2882 Месяц назад

Everyone in my household is scared when this happens. This is tough not just for me but for my family too.

@r.w3056 Месяц назад

Me too, exactly. Except with me I would be so so angry and mad at everyone and everything. I had to have a hysterectomy last summer keeping my ovaries and I have to say that my PMDD disappeared. I am so grateful. But I heard that Paxil can be taken for a week or two before your period to help. I have taken Paxil for anxiety and it works wonders for me.

@CJessieGroomPups 6 месяцев назад

I'm always praying that I can get through this. It's hard. 😢

@lynzistringer 9 месяцев назад

I’m 100% sure I have PMDD also. And just like what you said, it feels like a major depressive episode and then after the first day (sometimes the second day for me), almost every symptom subsides and I’m okay! It does creep back in sometimes after it goes away initially, but it’s never as bad as it is right before I start bleeding. Thank you for posting this video, it helps me feel less alone here. I don’t know anyone close to me who gets it as badly as I do, and it has made me feel like I’m just too sensitive or over exaggerating how I feel. But no, you hit the nail right on the head here

@ashmacbrid6056 Год назад

Thank you for sharing this video. I have struggled with anxiety and depression all my life. You have given me inspiration for self care that will help augment what my medication does for me.

@shanlouise7634 Год назад

I have been suffering from extreme PMDD for 4 years now and It has gotten so much worse and I felt like two seperate people. I have researched everything into PMDD and nothing has made me feel better. After watching this video I feel so uplifted and it has put so simply on things we can do. When you mentioned about not scheduling important things and not making plans during when you dont feel so good do you have any tips on how to avoid having to justify yourself to people and not getting guilty for saying no to people especilly close family, in laws, friends and work? Thank you for this video I have learnt so much

@belle1450 Год назад

Thank you so much for this video! I have struggled with PMDD for years now, and it seems like it has been getting worse every year. I heard that it’ll get even worse once you hit your thirties. It’s such a difficult condition to live with. Thank you for the helpful tips and for making me feel less alone 🤍😭

@thesimplechiclife Год назад

Yes I can vouch it definitely has gotten worse in my 30’s!! ❤️

@Runningformylife1983 Месяц назад

If you think your PMDD is bad wait till peri menopause and then menopause youll wish you never woke up. Im dreadming my menopause as im so bad on my pmdd atm i honestly fear for my life

Sorry to hear this, wishing you some better days! Hopefully you will feel some reprieve after menopause as some others with PMDD have found.

I do have a formal diagnosis. Yeah, basically, it affects day to day life (during that time) SO much more. Get a good psychiatrist if yall think you might have it. And work on regulating the basics (exercise, diet, and sleep).

@samanthajeffers9339 4 месяца назад

I suspect I have PMDD because right before my period I tend to get suicidal and don’t want to go on/become very hateful and grumpy. Its crazy how being proactive firing that week might just help. Thanks for the video

@christomas7948 4 месяца назад

Does anyone find that certain external circumstance can trigger there PMDD?

@StephanieD7 26 дней назад

I too am self diagnosed and ever since I quit taking the pill, I began logging my periods with stardust and noticed how much my cycles were conflicting with my moods. Ive suffered since preteen years and I’m 38 now. I’m starting to take herbal supplements and change my diet. Quitting alcohol definitely helped for sure as well!

@quin0392 Год назад

Thank you for sharing. So glad I'm not alone in this. ❤ One thing that is life changing for my PMDD is a supplement called Jubilance. I highly recommend it to anyone struggling with PMDD.

@natalinastella5144 Год назад

Thank you so much for sharing your experience with these conditions. I like many women, I am sure, have that in various degrees and knowing how to cope isn’t easy. If you could share more about your experience with taking antidepressant, I know I would really appreciate it a lot. Also, if perfumes were could be therapeutic and which ones. I know they help me a lot. Hugs!

@r.w3056 Месяц назад

I was the same way until I started talking Paxil. It helped almost immediately. Ask your Dr about it. It actually saved my marriage. I was so miserable I was planning on leaving my husband because all I wanted to do was be by myself. Paxil completely changed all that and I did a 180. Good luck

@ZizelleGreenberg 3 месяца назад

hi! anyother woman with PMDD here and also who loves coffee and caffeine - I highly recommend trying cacao (I love the oaxican spice blend by ora cacao) because it helps sooo much with my PMDD. it has some caffeine but also energizes with theobromine which is acts like an anti represent its high in magnesium yummy and so comforting in my opinion :)

@bevganley3492 Год назад

Nothing helps pmdd believe me , only a hysterectomy can resolve it but even that sends you straight into full blown menopause, I’m 55 had pmdd since age 16 had pmdd 35 years , believe me I know my stuff, I’m in perimenopause now and literally bedridden with symptoms literally can’t function defiantly 💯 worse in peri , I cant wait for full blown menopause for pmdd to end 🤞🏼

Has this changed since having your child or not?

@thesimplechiclife Год назад

I had a quite dysfunctional past from about age 8 to ... I guess 20 ish years old was when things began to improve for me, alot of family dynamics etc - so I have always struggled to some extent with mental health issues. I had post partum depression with both children and my mental health is significantly better now than it was years ago. It's just that PMDD that remains. I am not sure if I had it before childbirth 💗 Because things were generally tough at those times in my life.

@thesimplechiclife Год назад

Honestly, sometimes it’s the most painful thing and so hard to do depending on the day and current life circumstances. But I always feel better even if I get just 15 to 20 mins of a workout in. But I know there will be days when I just can’t get myself there, so I try to go consistently during my good days:)
