See your doctor: Pmdd is more severe than pms, and needs professional help. Please see your own doctor (or a psychiatrist) about this. Bring your notes and calendar to show the correlation of your symptoms with menstrual cycle timing. That will help in diagnosis. Sometimes antidepressants can help. Also magnesium, b6, with limiting caffeine, refined sugar, salt, and alcohol may help. http://tinyurl.com/3cjnf3r.
