Say It LOUDER!….an awareness blog for PMDD

Ah, the luteal phase…my old nemesis. Like clockwork it swoops in every month bringing mood swings, exhaustion, and an unshakable sense of doom….you know, the usual…and according to my calculations (phone app) this is the beginning days of Luteal.

 This time feels different though…instead of bracing for the hormonal apocalypse…having a diagnosis and a plan makes me feel a little more in control.

 A little over two weeks of supplements and no coffee! I can feel a change in my day to day….less anxious…more calm….i’m able to sit still and my “manic” didn’t feel so out of control either.

I am hoping these changes are positive during the PMDD phase also!

with love,

Caitlin
