I have been hospitalised three times now- once for harm and twice for anxiety attacks. I have only just been diagnosed this year- after the birth of my second son, but now realise it has been going on for years. Previously I have turned to alcohol, which makes everything worse. I am on medication and have had an iud put in, but they have not worked, in fact I feel the PMDD is escalating each month.<BR /> I’m looking for help and support and suggestions on how to manage this without having to get a hysterectomy (which I am seriously considering).

I don't know about the condition you mention, but thans to Smallwolf, I have somewhere to go in search of info, &amp; then I will have a better understanding.</P> <P>Obviously, I don't have the condition or anything like it. I think, if you do find a support group, even if you must go to Facebook, (my opinion, but lots like it), then that would at least help you feel not so alone.</P> <P>Many can relate to 'harm' &amp; anxiety attacks, so I'm sure you will find some support here.</P> <P>Warmly,</P> <P>mmMekitty</P> Sat, 18 Jun 2022 08:47:00 GMT https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/welcome-and-orientation/coping-with-pmdd/m-p/18155#M2433 mmMekitty 2022-06-18T08:47:00Z https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/welcome-and-orientation/coping-with-pmdd/m-p/550035#M30639 <P>I am the same as you and looking to see if there is a local face to face support meeting group but can’t seem to find one <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":smiling_face_with_smiling_eyes:">😊</span></P> Tue, 18 Oct 2022 13:30:39 GMT https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/welcome-and-orientation/coping-with-pmdd/m-p/550035#M30639 Panda_1623 2022-10-18T13:30:39Z
