Worse than PMS

Posted by: ducky on Wed Jan 2, 2008

I always seemed to suffer somewhat from pms, but after my daughter was born, and after i stopped breast feeding, it got so much worse. I was an emotional wreck, crying at the mere thought of something bad. My husband threatened me with divorce once or twice, and instead of having regular ol' mood swings, I was becoming violent, and I was always tired. So I went to my doctor. Turns out I suffer from PMDD. It's becoming more common, and doctors are finally starting to recognize it as an actual problem. He put me on yaz, and an antidepressant, which I only take for the two weeks before I'm supposed to get my period. It's been about 6 months, and I can say that things are turning around. I don't cry at the drop of a hat, my husband likes being around me now, and I have more patience for my very active 3 year old.
