PMDD is a co-morbidity with #autism and other #neurodivergency . if you suffer with “bad pms” or periods, then i’d highly encourage you to check out IAMPMD.org
it’s a website with information and help.
I cannot express enough how much this condition has fucked up my life, and how much I want people to know more about it.
i have a condition called #pmdd and few people know about it, despite it affecting 3-5% of AFABs. and of those who suffer 30% will attempt suicide. PMDD is a condition where for the week (or more) before your period you suffer due to the hormone changes. Depression, Mood swings, joint pain and, headaches are just some of the symptoms. It is real and terrifying and it leaves you feeling helpless. (1/2)
