Hi, was blessed to have crohns and also pmdd which is a severe form of pms. When I'm off my routine like now due to my living arrangements i go haywire. which will be changing soon. pmdd hits me out of nowhere every month usually a week or 2 before my cycle starts. im always aware as i usually keep track of my cycles. but my mood, concentration,focus, all go down hill, which makes it hard dealing with crohns. i also start craving sweet and salty foods. the cravings are like being on a high dose of pred. i get alot more d during this time. i get extremely aggitated and sad. its like im a different person altogether. then my period starts and im back to normal. im just really lonely as i have pushed most everyone away from me because of this ugly side of me. then theres crohns. my old friends and my family never understood why i dint want to go out alot. alot of them would get angry at me no matter how much i tried to explain. i used to be a social butterfly. i dont like people seeing my bad side. but my husband isnt supportive with crohns or pmdd. i really dont have any support but this forum and i will be moving this weekend which means no more internet. i wanted to apologise for my controversial and debated ways. i want to help people i just need to figure out ways to calm myself,during pmdd. wont take meds already tried. im really happy and nervous about moving. sorry for the ramble. i was wondering does any one else go through this? its like no matter what i do i have racing thaughts that leads to insomnia. i will get back on a more functional routine when i move and hopefully lesson these symptoms. im glad i found this forum. you guys are so helpful. thank you David for having this webpage! i will journey out on my own again. love, peace, and rock and roll:hug::kiss::ghug:
