another one here who hasn't been diagnosed, but has noticed the connection between suicidal thoughts & pre-period.

my Drs (GP and pdoc) do not want to put me on birth control because they say that there is not enough evidence for it to be useful, and they want me to be stable (with my normal depression) first. my pdoc put me on an SSRI (which is meant to be the most useful med for PMDD) but i didnt find it was enough, so i gave it up.

i am currently taking evening primrose oil throughout the month, more when my period is coming. it does not take everything away, but i have noticed i will probably cry instead of make sui plans, so that's gotta be a good thing, right?
