Is it normal to feel like, suicidal when on your period. I’m normally depressed but it’s like, only extremely bad then. 😭

Ah okay, I’ll look into it. I’m already on Duloxetine so I wasn’t sure what else could help 😮‍💨

So I do feel this way but I was recently diagnosed with PMDD

It was for me but I also think I have undiagnosed PMDD. As a kid when I didnt understand what was happening to me, I contemplated suicide every month and eventually attempted. Twice. It pisses me off to no end that this shit hasn’t been more researched cause holy fuck it’s deadly.

Cause it’s not abnormal but it’s also not supposed to happen. I get that too and my Gynecologist diagnosed me with it. She said a light dose of anti-depressants just before period or birth control could help, but I was reluctant to go on any pills so she also recommended exercise and diet changes and that has honestly helped me quite a bit
