Understanding Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD)
Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) is an elevated manifestation of premenstrual symptoms, differing from Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) by its severity, which classifies it as a mood disorder. In the weeks leading up to the menstrual period, both PMS and PMDD may share common physical symptoms like bloating, cramps, breast tenderness, and headaches. However, PMDD is distinguished by more pronounced mood changes, including heightened anxiety, depression, and irritability.
Approximately 6 million women worldwide have received a diagnosis of PMDD, underlining the prevalence and impact of this condition. If you have been diagnosed with PMDD or suspect that you may be experiencing symptoms, seeking virtual mental health care through Brightside Health can provide convenient and effective treatment options from the comfort of your home.
Symptoms of PMDD encompass a range of physical and emotional changes, such as swollen or tender breasts, constipation or diarrhea, bloating, cramping, headaches, muscle aches, clumsiness, lower tolerance for noise or light, fatigue, sleeping problems, appetite changes, trouble with concentration or memory, tension, anxiety, feelings of sadness or crying spells, mood swings, irritability, and a decreased interest in sex.
In more severe cases, PMDD symptoms may escalate to include intense anger or irritability, feelings of despair, suicidal thoughts, severe anxiety, panic attacks, loss of interest in usual activities and relationships, feeling out of control, and heightened emotional reactivity.
Effective mental health care can assist individuals in managing PMDD symptoms and finding relief. Seeking professional support is crucial for those experiencing the impact of PMDD, providing an avenue for understanding, coping, and developing strategies to enhance overall well-being.
