Helps for Loved Ones of Women with PMDD - Part 1

Today Heidi shares observations she has of herself, her teen daughter, and others that experience PMDD. The focus of today's episode is to offer perspective for the significant other and loved ones of those suffering with PMDD. It is not easy to understand what is going on in a woman's head when her PMDD symptoms are active, or to know how to help her. Listen in for some help! Take Aways-PMDD symptoms will likely be worse when the woman is dealing with disappointment,  unmet expectations, or trauma.-When PMDD symptoms are active, women believe things that are not true.-It can be difficult when a hoped for solution doesn't work as expected. Remind her that trying to help herself is worth it and as she continues she is sure to find some solutions.-Have compassion on her and on yourself.-Take questions to God. He may have answers no one else can give.-The things out of her control may be ever present on her mind.-Trying to solve for her problems DURING her active PMDD symptoms is likely impossible. Wait a few days and then revisit "the problem" with her. It likely isn't a problem for her now.-It can be difficult or impossible for her to believe that what she is thinking is ludicrous even if it is obvious to you.-Good luck! She will be forever grateful for you if you stick it out with her.Want more support? ❤️Click here to talk with me.
