PMDD

I have PMDD and I have been having episodes... (I know these thoughts are not me) Besides increasing my protein and decreasing my sugar what can I change in my diet or add that would be beneficial to having more peace of mind? I currently am taking, calcium, iron, magnesium and a few other basic supplements to encourage a healthy lifestyle. I write in my journal and exercise daily. I wish I had a genuine someone to talk to because I know keeping this in isn't helping. And I'm not able to get out often due to my husbands work schedule so I know constantly being home isn't helping either.

After a while of trying to manage my PMDD naturally, I ended up burning out and had to get on fluoxetine. Im also doing all the things you mentioned , exercising, and drinking alot of water and limiting my caffeine intake in combination with fluoxetine has helped so much. Oh and therapy! I’m on the lowest dose and so far it’s been helping so much! I’m planning on only being on it short term. I think you’re doing everything right. I hope you find something that works for you! Hang in there .

@Natalia I hope so too. Thank you so much for sharing this with me. 💕

Avoid caffeine and low blood sugar is what I recommend to all my clients. I'm the morning, go for a good protein and low sugar, like eggs or yogurt. Not something starchy like bagels. Also, make sure to stay hydrated. You want to stay as balanced as possible, avoiding any highs or lows.

Have you tried acupuncture and Chinese medicine? I’d start there 🙏
