hey if your period literally fucking cripples you every month but everyone keeps telling you that's normal and you're just overreacting

consider that it might not be normal

I've been on the depo shot contraceptive for several years longer than you're supposed to because it manages these symptoms, I had to go off it for a while by doctor suggestion to reassess if I still need it, my period has been back for three days and I'm seeing my doctor TODAY to get back on depo because I just can't handle the physical and emotional toll it takes on me

this shit is genuinely crippling, I cannot function, don't let people convince you that this is normal, listen to your body and get help

i just learned premenstrual exacerbation (PME) is a thing which is like. when your menstrual cycle makes pre-existing conditions worse (especially mental health conditions). i'm starting to wonder if i have either this, PMS, or PMDD... or both PMS or PMDD and PME. (yes ik PMS isn't the same as PMDD, i just dont track my symptoms well enough to know if it's just regular ol' PMS or not)... time to download a period tracker

My experience with PMDD, now that I’ve realized what it is, is visceral in hindsight.

I came to terms with it recently, after years of fighting. It was a week where I went to campus, skipped half my classes, and spent a whole day sitting on a couch in commons staring forward and trying not cry while my chest felt like it was imploding. I couldn’t eat. I could barely breathe. I texted my mom that I was scared, and the next day my period started and I went home and hugged my family and went straight to my psychiatrist.

I spent so much of my life assuming that I had some form of depression, but it was so on and off that it never really counted. I wasn’t sick enough. When it hit me, it burned me like a wildfire, but when it was gone, it was like nothing was there.

So whenever that fire came blazing through my house, I thought I must be losing my mind. Then, I started to realize that these feelings lined up with my cycle. It started to click.

The world tells people with periods that it’s normal to be bitchy or dramatic or hysterical, so even when I noticed the pattern was connected to my cycle, I brushed it aside. I barely knew what PMDD was. I had seen the name on Tumblr though, so I looked it up. And even now I’m scared to tell people because that’s what they assume. They won’t get it.

But good friends will. And good doctors will. And you owe it to yourself, if any of this or what follows sounds familiar, to try and seek help.

Because here is what I know now: I am not irreparably broken. This is real.

And here is what I remember:

I remember one time staring at my friends smiling and feeling such a visceral pain and emptiness that I ran out of the room to take a walk in which I decided to cut myself off from them and drafted a suicide note in my head. And two days later my period started and I went back to those friends feeling completely fine.

I remember sitting on the floor of my room sobbing over feelings that had been triggered by playing a video game, and thinking oh god, these depressive episodes hit me out of nowhere and when they happen I stop seeing a future that doesn’t Hurt, am I going to have to deal with being sick and completely incapable of being a human at random times for the rest of my life? So why do I even try? I made the decision to isolate myself again, because no companionship could possibly fix me. Followed by my period the next week.

I remember breaking down to my friends that I’m irreparably sick because of those random weeks where everything hurts and I become the worst version of myself, then two days later having to sit them down again and say that I was wrong and overreacting. (My period had started).

I remember coming home to see my family many times and lashing out at them. Freezing in the living room when I had to do work and yelling at everyone who tried to help me. I felt pathetic. I felt incapable of taking care of myself at all. I was so so angry. I stopped eating to punish myself. My period would start some days after this.

I remember being in so much distress one week that my friends were scared for me. Getting extensions on all of my finals because I couldn’t do anything but stare at the wall. Finishing performing in a show where I was the lead and breaking down 10 minutes after curtains fell because I couldn’t bring myself to feel proud or believe anyone who said I had done well, and wanting to give up my love of theater forever because what’s the point if it will never make me happy? Will my hobbies ever make me happy? And then my period came.

I can be happy. I’ve changed my meds and my treatment. And having a diagnosis that makes it all make sense has lifted this weight off of my shoulders. It won’t go away, but I know what’s there now. Knowing us half the battle, huh?

So yeah, if this reminds you of yourself, look into premenstrual dysphoric disorder. And I love you — you’ve made it this far, and I know first hand what that means.

“The only sane response to an emergency is activism.”

Get your free copy of “Psychology of Apocalypse” for a deep understanding of the crises of environment & fascism & the necessary heroes arising now.

The book, "Psychology of Apocalypse: Ecopsychology, Activism, and the Prenatal Roots of Humanicide" by Michael Adzema is available for free from August 26th - 30th, 2024, and again from December 2nd - 6th, 2024.

Adzema's work explores the impact of prenatal experiences on human behavior, societal dynamics, and environmental attitudes. It delves into the concept of prenatal suffering as the foundational cause of human evil, shaping emotions and behaviors, and contributing to societal issues such as violence, bigotry, and pollution

Additionally, the book emphasizes the importance of activism and heroism in addressing environmental threats and societal challenges, offering a thought-provoking exploration of early experiences' profound influence on humanity.

It addresses the urgent call to action to avert potential global devastation due to nuclear threats and environmental degradation.

Additionally, it delves into themes of violence, sacrifice, and heroism, emphasizing the need for emotionally connected heroism in facing challenges.

In Adzema's words, "The only sane response to an emergency is activism … and the sanest response is heroism. Not sainthood. Not enlightenment. Not social status. Not corporate success. Not any kind of material achievement.

"No. the only sane response to a situation where we stand in front of a house on fire is to pick up a bucket. Anything else is numb, unfeeling, quite dissociated, and selfish.

"And when one is inside that house, the only response is to get out the fire extinguisher, seek to help the ones inside to get free from the flames, to minimize the suffering of others and to save others and oneself, regardless if one succeeds or not.

"The only sane response is thus heroism."

ppl with premenstrual disorders need paid sick leave during the luteal phase. awareness won't save me if this illness keeps me stuck in poverty bc employers will always penalize me for being physically unable to work for a few days per month. literally the only accommodation that would make a real difference for me is paid premenstrual leave. this would also be suicide prevention for a lot of ppl with these conditions. deadass

One moment you’re soaring on the wings of creativity, deeply invested in a scene, and the next, your body is like, Nope, we’re crying now—

—over a commercial, or because that one chord progression in a song felt too powerful. Chronic hormonal sensitivity can feel like you’re walking on eggshells with your own body, never quite knowing what each day will bring. It’s not just the mood swings; it’s the physical toll. You might be deep into editing or brainstorming, but a sudden hot flash or muscle ache pulls you out of focus. You lose time just managing the physical symptoms.

That unpredictability can disrupt the delicate balance between creativity and productivity. Writing requires a certain level of emotional engagement, but when you’re extra sensitive to emotional triggers, you might find yourself overwhelmed by your own stories. A scene that’s meant to be joyful might hit you harder than expected, or a conflict between characters could amplify your own stress.

Then there’s the mental fog that sometimes comes with hormonal fluctuations. You want to work on that intricate plot twist or complex character development, but your brain feels like it’s swimming in molasses. All of it combines to create this tricky dance between your body, your emotions, and the very stories you’re trying to tell.

But here’s the thing: when you manage to harness those heightened emotions, it can bring a richness to your writing that might not have been there otherwise.

We often talk about hormones in terms of balance, but the truth is, they’re never static. They’re in constant flux, shifting in response to everything from stress to sleep. So when we talk about ‘hormonal balance,’ it’s not really about perfect stillness—because that doesn’t exist—it’s more about finding a sense of stability amid the chaos. And for those of us whose bodies seem allergic to their own fluctuations, that idea of balance can feel like chasing a mirage, always just out of reach.

Critique d'Alain Gargani : Une Lecture Positive d’un Engagement Authentique

Porté par une vision forte et des valeurs profondément humaines, le leadership d’un homme engagé illumine le parcours des PME régionales. À travers des actions concrètes et un dialogue constant avec le terrain, Alain Gargani démontre que l’engagement sincère reste un pilier essentiel du progrès. Une critique constructive révèle ici un moteur de confiance et d’innovation.

[nowthatyourehere]

My eyes move in and out of focus, I switch back and forth from being present to getting lost in the dialogue in my mind. Why I’d ever choose to be more present there, than right here, is beyond me. Smiling kids, someone’s favorite song playing softly in the background on the coffee shop’s playlist. Sometimes, I feel on days like today I’m seeing the world through eyes that are not my own. If you’re not careful, you can begin to believe the veil. 

Today, I’ll transmute the experience into art, into a journal entry that takes a positive spin, into sending love outward to a friend. Knowing what this particular realm feels like, is one of the cards I have been dealt. I wouldn’t be the same without having experienced it though, and I (you) offer something beautiful to the world — perspective, empathy, and all of your unique lessons. This is our catalyst for growth, breathe into it.
