~I can feel the PMDD approaching, hovering, waiting. It feels
like another presence, a shadow, that lives inside me and it's slowly making
its way to my mind where it can take over my thoughts and emotions. It's behind
me where I can sense it but not see it. I'm aware of it there and can push it
back a little, but I can't stop it and it slowly creeps forward closer and
further than it was before. I try to prepare for the inevitable, knowing that I
can never really prepare myself for what's to come.~ JP

PMDD Quote to Reflect On
From a participant in the Facebook groups...
~I came to the realization that PMDD is as much of a spectrum disorder as autism is. Everything is different for each of us, severity so different, that there is no real way to pin it down. Maybe that's why treatment is so elusive. We are trying to classify it to fit in a single box, and it simply can't. In other diseases there are finite ways to tackle it. That is just not so with any spectrum disorder.~
