PMDD- Not just 'really bad PMS'

from Alphabet Soup! Exploring Complex Neurodiversity Hosted by Steph Robertson

In this episode, Steph explores Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) through both lived experience and a neurodiversity-affirming lens. She shares some of her own reflections alongside accessible information about what PMDD is, how it shows up, and why it is so often misunderstood or dismissed. Steph talks about the cyclical nature of PMDD, common experiences, and how this can intersect with neurodivergence and trauma. This episode also gently invites a shift away from self-blame and towards understanding the body as responsive, not broken. If you've ever felt like you "lose yourself" at certain times of the month, this conversation may help make sense of that experience with more compassion.
